Default OTF Error installing v5.20beta2 (FIXED)

I get this error when installing the 32-bit v5.20beta2 on Windows 7.

This is for a portable install, overwriting an existing portable. When I click ignore, it continues as usual.

When I tried installing it again, same location, same error happens.

Font maybe used by another app? Try closing all opened apps.

There are no other open apps.

And what other app would be using what appears to be a Reaper-specific (rea*.*) font file located in the plugin folder of a portable install?

Odd. When I do a portable install to a new location, and even when I then reinstall to that same new location, I don't get the error. (Even after running the new install and using the notation editor, which is what I assume the font is for...?)

But it consistently gives that error when installing over my active R5 install folder. When I try to delete Reavura.otf from that folder, I get an error that the file is "open in System."

But what else would be using it if Reaper isn't running at the time?

Process Explorer might help.

I looked using Process Hacker but it didn't show anything.

But when I rebooted, as expected, the file had been released and the install went without problem.

But it's odd how the system had been holding on to that one file.
