Ever had such an annoying message given by Windows?

It has many other similar errors:

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.

You’ve checked and is very sure that all programs are closed, but you’re still unable to delete, rename or move the files/folders.
The ultimate solution to this problem is…

The Unlocker!
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

3. Simply click Unlock All and you are done!

Ohh… and this is a FREEWARE 😉
