The other day I went to commit some changes to a SubVersion repository running on VisualSVN and was presented with the following error:
Can’t open file ##################### The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open.
I tried, removing my project from subversion and reimporting and removing the repository completely but to no avail.
It turned out it was my Anti Virus software causing the problem (I'm using AVG). To fix I had to open the AVG control panel, go to Tools > Advanced Settings, expand Resident Shield > Directory Excludes and add the directory where my repositories are stored:
Once done, I ran my commit again and it was successful.
