Unlocker 1.7.0 [Archive] - ForumsHQ

Post by iNViSiGOD »

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



It 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:



· New functionality: help deleting, renaming and moving objects even if no handle exist. If previous versions of Unlocker only told you "No locking handle found", this new version should help you solve your problems

· New functionality: Short/Long/UNC name file deleting, renaming and moving operations to delete badly named objects. If you do not know what I am talking about, run this batch file and try to delete the folders created at the root of the C: drive without Unlocker and you will understand :D

· New functionality: delete, rename, move on next boot

· New functionality: improved delete. Now C:Documents and SettingsusernameCookiesindex.dat can be deleted without killing processes

· Improved UI: the webpage link of the update alert is clickable now

· Improved UI: items can be sorted when clicking the listview columns titles

· New Language: Estonian thanks to Mihkel Tonnov for the translation

· New Language: Spanish thanks to Javier L. for the translation

· Fixed bug: the explorer extension does not use msvcrt71.dll anymore since it is not installed by default

· Fixed bug: multiple selection delete and move should work now

That's bad ass, I've always wanted something that could do that.

Same here, i can see it being especially helpful with locked files containing spyware/adware coding and such.

Yeah, it sure beats booting into dos and tracking it down and deleting it there. I downloaded this and already have cleaned out a few things, this definitely goes onto my essential tools list.
