Unable to delete file OR FOLDER - try Unlocker

Now and then we come across a file that just refuse to be deleted or even renamed or moved... Windows says "It is used by another person or program close any program that might be using
the file and try again "



Now that is annoying ... when u know u r the only person who uses it and doesn't want it any more.

The small but brilliant software unlocker can help you and it doesn't cost a penny ... it is a freeware.

pretty neat all u have to do is to download the small software (191 kb) from
http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/#download
and install it.
(direct download of file from http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/unlocker1.8.5.exe
but it is better to visit the site may be a newer version is out )

How to delete the file / Folder
------------------------------------------
(These instructions can be found at the author's page )

2) Once installed Right click the file or folder u want to delete.

3) From the menu that appears select Unlocker



4) If it is locked you will get a window that list the softwares / processes that use the file .
