Many of them don't pass the test.

ok,
i'm actually i'm working on a Windows Explorer like application.
The web browser control is used in right pane. Which emulates the list view
exactly similar to that in Windows Explorer. But, when some drive/folder selected
in it, that folder is actually marked as 'in use' by Windows (i.e. some file handles
must be kept open by Windows). Even SetCurrentDirectory() doesn't works. Now, I think
that whenever a new drive is to be shown, i can destroy the old view and recreate new
one...

That doesn't sound like a good situation for programmatically destroying and recreating views. I've used the technique to improve application responsiveness and decrease the memory footprint.

I guess I don't understand what you're asking for. When the user selects a folder in the left pane, files (and sub-folders) show up in the right pane. Simply doing a FileFind on *.* to populate the right pane should be sufficient, and whether those files/folders are "in use by windows" is irrelevant.

No, actually, instead of FindFile(), i let WebBrowser navigate to the desired location (e.g. C:\). This shows the exact ListView similar to what we see in Windows Explorer. I even get bonus items like Task Lists, Contextual Menus etc.
But it can be using notification functions to know about changes in that folder and also displays 'Details', such as preview of images etc., and for that opening files in necessary... i think.

It's definitely possible. If you provide your email address, I'll send you some VC6 code I have.

Couldn't you just hide them until you want to use them again? Or is it a necessity to free/release them?

You would better have listened to your teacher.
We are here to help you (even now!).
But you need to show the error you get and the code you wrote.
We won't read your mind, see?

You have failed to indicate what line of what file is asserting. Without such information, I can only surmise that you are attempting to move a non-existent window.
