1) Open a Resources.resx file in a .NET solution
2) Close VS
3) Delete that file (or: move that project to another directory and adjust the project path in the sln file)
4) Open VS
5) It will try to open that file in a tab
6) It shows an error in that tab (file not found)
7) Try to close that tab (Ctrl+F4 / clicking X / middle clicking the tab) - not possible. A popup appears:
> The operation could not be completed. Falscher Parameter.
It is not possible to close that tab.
