Looks like there is a problem with wmvcore.dll.
What version of that module do you have installed?
Apparently something is already using it
so you will need to reboot to get the copy done.
Alternatively perhaps you could stop whatever it is that
is blocking an immediate copy. E.g. use tasklist /v
tasklist /v /fi "Modules eq wmvcore.dll"
or use Process Explorer's Search function (Ctrl-f) to find any Handle
entries which contain that module name. Presumably the same functionality
is present in the superseding tool, ProcMon, but I haven't figured out how
to do that yet.
Ah. My mistake. Only RegMon and FileMon have been superseded
by ProcMon (which now seems also to duplicate some features of ProcExp.)
Process Explorer still lives:

(Live Search for
"process explorer" site:microsoft.com
)
Good luck
