This application unlocks in-use files, allowing functions to be performed on theme.

Unlocker adds a simple context menu (right-click) entry that allows for quick and easy "unlocking" of files. No more rebooting to delete files that are in use.

What's New in Unlocker 1.8.7 :

· Fixed bug: Unlocker should not create event logs anymore.
· Fixed bug: Unlocker should not take minutes to close on certain configurations anymore.
· Fixed bug: Unlocker should not lock DLLs not used by Unlocker anymore.
· Fixed bug: Fixed potential driver bug.
· Fixed bug: Miscellaneous handle leaks.
· Improved behavior: Improved deleting/renaming/moving files such as C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9e.ocx for example.
· Improved behavior: When right-clicking files or folders and selecting Unlocker, those are automatically deselected. It helps with movie files and removable drives.
· Improved UI: Icon looks correct now on Windows Vista
· Promotional feature: Added fully optional shortcuts to eBay during the installation. Simply untick "eBay shortcuts" in the choose components page during install if you do not wish to have those.

This is a fantastic tool if you are de-virusing a computer -- one of their favorite tricks is to lock a file so that you cant remove it! On this system I tried
everything up to including going into Safe mode modifying registry permissions...and a white hat in a help forum pointed me here. I didnt figure that this would work, but it did, and blew me away! FANTASTIC -- Thanks!
