Description of Unlocker 1.9.1

Unlock files and folders

Everyone receives al least once in a life time such an annoying message given by Windows :
• Cannot delete file: Access is denied
• There has been a sharing violation.
• The source or destination file may be in use.
• The file is in use by another program or user.
• Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.
Unlocker is the solution!

1. Simply right click the folder or file and select Unlocker
2. If the folder or file is locked, a window listing of lockers will appear

Editor's review for Unlocker

Ever tried to delete a file or folder but encounter an annoying ever-present repetitive pop-up stating that you cannot do so due to the fact that it is currently in use by another program or service? This can be the result of any number of different conditions currently affecting your computer and that program or folder in particular such as if the program has access denied to it for security reasons, there is a sharing violation (common on networked computers) or the actual file itself may currently be open and in use somewhere.

Alternatively, it can also currently be active by another user on a network either at work or at time (though possibly not actually working, simply sitting in the background), the disk itself is write-protected (preventing access to the file) or a malicious virus or other program designed to prevent your computer from operating properly has hidden away the files in other systems in order to protect the file you wish to delete.

No matter the cause of the error, one thing is certain: being able to effectively close all processes and instances of the program's operations and allowing you to do what you wish with the program is necessary to your long-term plans with your computer (and possibly your sanity as well if you've been having a particularly hard time eliminating a file as of late). To that end, Unlocker has been developed with the sole purpose of allowing personal computer users to do just that: scan all instances of a file's access on your system and unlock it for deletion or modification safely and effectively.

Working beyond simply closing programs and killing processes, Unlocker can even unload sensitive DLL and other data files that have been registered on your system either with or without a full computer reboot in order to provide users with a full suite of processes they can have at their disposal in order to do what they want when they want with their files. This allows for full control over your system at all times without needing to interrupt your work on a regular basis and allow you to quickly address issues as they come up without needing to waste countless hours searching for the one particular instance that may be preventing your usage.

Better still, it's absolutely free - meaning you can start downloading and using it today without any risk to either your computer or your wallet. So what are you waiting for? Get out there and start unlocking programs now!
