Q: 

Can't read file summary properties in windows after reading them in code using Shell interop

After reading a file properties in code in a fashion similar to this, I go to the file in question using Windows Explorer and can't read the file summary properties. Am I missing something in my code? How do I release file handles possibly held by the Shell object?
