I am creating an BitmapImage from an existing image using:

BitmapImage bmp = new BitmapImage();
bmp.BeginInit();
bmp.UriSource = new Uri(jpegPath, UriKind.Relative);
bmp.EndInit();

After I have done this I want to delete the image from my hard drive, but it is locked.
Is there a way I can unlock it so it can be removed?

    bmp.CacheOption = BitmapCacheOption.OnLoad;

    That will load the image into memory completely and won’t leave a lock on the image file.
