Files are just a wrapper around a file name to let you do
manipulations on the name, You can also do delete and lastmodified
which do not open the file.  If you have dangling open files, it must
involve something with a close method.

Surely some profiler will tell you.  One of the sysinternals utilities
will let you track open/close at the OS level.

Failing that you will have to instrument your code by calling a logger
at every open and close.

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
