DLL Inuse Utility for Replacing a DLL In Use by Operating System (inu_x86.exe):
Inuse.exe provides individuals and administrators with "on-the-fly" capability to replace files that are currenly in use by the operating system. Although this behavior is generally accomplished by running a program's setup program or a service pack's upgrade program, the setup and upgrade process tends to replace multiple files. However, for troubleshooting purposes, you may need to replace an individual file on your computer versus an entire set of files.
InUse is a Win32-based command-line utility that can be used by and within automated tasks, scripts, or other programs.
