OF_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE flags, the created file is not open for exclusive access.
Another application can also open the file.
RESOLUTION

To create a file and open it for exclusive access, an application must create
the file, close the file, and open it for exclusive access.
MORE INFORMATION
================
OpenFile() passes its parameters to MS-DOS Interrupt 21h. OpenFile() and
