Question

I got a strange error with this program, It download a photo from internet, then I convert it to .jpeg and then I delete the first photo (in .png).
But i got an error: File is being used by another process. Why is happening this? I didn’t open the file, and nobody is using it.

string outFile;
outFile = Path.GetTempFileName();
try
{
    webClient.DownloadFile(foto, outFile);
    if (foto.Substring(foto.Length - 3) == "png")
    {
        System.Drawing.Image image1 = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(outFile);
        foto = foto.Remove(foto.Length - 3) + "jpg";
        string outFile2 = Path.GetTempFileName();
        image1.Save(outFile2, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
        System.IO.File.Delete(outFile);                      
        outFile = outFile2;
    }
}

FromFile is keeping the file open, you have to use something like this:

// Load image
FileStream filestream;
filestream = new FileStream("Filename",FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
currentImage = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(filestream);
filestream.Close();
