 From the following I assume this is msvcrt.dll

Well, generally, if you buy accessories for your car and mount them by
yourself, and the accessories don't come with a well thought-out mounting
procedure, you may very well have to get out a mechanic's handbook for your
car and your tool chest and try diggin around the innards of your car
:)  In this case, the program could have come with an installer and you
wouldn't have these problems. Also, few people would try to mount an
accessory that requires them to exchange one of the pistons of the car for
a newer model... :)

Are you sure that it's because of the file being in use? This should work
in a clean boot, or after you closed all your applications (also those tray
apps). If it still doesn't, try to boot into safe mode.
