Unlocker – Cut, Move, Modify Files That Are In Use

Shares

Unlocker is a Windows Explorer extension which allows you to right click on a file or folder that you get an error when deleting or moving. Unlocker can help you unlock files that produce error messages like these (or similar to):

  • 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.

    I have not had much success with Unlocker, but I have had a whol heck of a time using !KillBox.

    Excellent site BTW.

    Killbox is a great tool as well. However, I find Unlocker is better at releasing files from XP’s grip without having to reboot the computer.
