OT: I know about the Ctrl-F to find files and that's great as long as
it is really a file that is opened. Sometimes, there are handles
opened to the device themselves, e.g. '\devices\harddisk1',
which in my case happened to be my encrypted drive.

No idea, but you can find out yourself with Process Explorer. I guess
you already know that, but for the record: with Find Handle (CTRL-F) you
can find any handle (not only files, but also e.g. registry entries and
COM ports) and a list of processes that are using that handle.
