Publisher's description of Unlocker
Ever had such an annoying message given by Windows: Cannot delete file: Access is denied. There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use or 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. Unlocker is the solution. Unlocker is an Explorer extension that allows you with a simple right-click of the mouse on a file or folder to get rid of error message such as error deleting file or folder, cannot delete folder: it is used by another person or program.

Version: Unlocker 1.8.7
"Functionality a good operating system should provide"
Pros: This is really a nice little piece of shareware. It can help troubleshoot what process is locking a file. Often (but not always) it can also unlock the file for you.
Cons: Running the Assistant all the time is not really necessary if you add a Context Menu handler to the Windows Explorer which you can access without the program running. The most recent versions permit you to select which components are installed, so this is not really an issue.
