Cannot edit tags of file, while waveform is generated

Well, there is another question/issue. I often get the f2k Info "Could not update tags (File is already in use) on: C:\mp3\myfile.mp3" when trying to change tags, while the waveform is still generated. I change tags via scripts bound to keyboard shortcuts, so I usually change 2-3 tags very quickly, while the component is on its way to generate the waveform. It happens on SSD, HD and Network too, no difference. Keyboard-shortcuts are fast, waveform generation is not. My options are, a) halting the waveform generation b) wait until the generation is finished, then press the shortcuts. c) ? I must say, b) is out of question a) will result in enjoying and using the waveform mainly when I do other work than tagging or moving files in f2k (which is only about 15% while the rest 85% is fetching/finetuning tags, etc.), so the fine waveform is mostly deactivated. Which is a pitty IMHO, because it is so helpful to use (jumping visually, skipping parts) and very convenient (click=done) to work with. c) Is something which did not come to my mind yet.... %-) So the question is, is there a way to omit this message (and of course enable editing/changing a file, while its beeing processed)? The waveform generator opens the file in r/o mode (I guess), so why can't I edit that file? Is this a Windows7 thing, or may this be canged in f2k somewhere, maybe any advanced setting? Thanks for your ideas.
