the locked files wizard, formerly known as copylock, is an assistant that allows you to either delete, move or rename files or folders used by the system or any other application or process. you can display and possibly stop the processes or services that use executables, folders or dynamiclink libraries (dll) and try the operation again to possibly avoid restarting your system and thus save time.
the wizard also allows you to quickly pick the image path of a process (select > file from process) or a program that runs at startup from the registry (select > file from registry), to manage it. this may be useful to quickly remove worms, trojans or any other malware from a system.
additionally you can manage the pending operations that are delayed until the next reboot.
the package includes a commandline version that can be used from a command window or a script.
disclaimer: you can possibly crash your system or prevent an installed program from working if you are not careful, use at your own risk.
