I think "handle" should be translated.
There's no Italian translation in Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handle_(computing)

As it's described as an abstract reference to a resource (a file), I 
would use the translation of reference, that is:

"Riferimento obsoleto al file"
"Riferimento al file obsoleto"

Which one sounds better?
The handle is stale (not the file), right?
