Free File Unlocker is a compact software application designed to help users unlock or delete files that you have experienced problems with when trying to erase, move, or rename them.

Plus, the tool also lets you kill the processes that are associated with various problems (e.g. “Cannot delete file: Access is denied,” “Cannot read from the source file or disk”).

Free File Unlocker sports a clean and intuitive layout that allows users to select the file or directory where the locked items are stored.

What’s more, you make the utility scan the computer for locked items and generate a list with them.

During our testing we have noticed that the scanning process doesn’t take a lot of time but this pretty much depends on the disk size.

It eats up CPU and memory while it gathers the needed data, so the overall performance of the computer may be burdened.

The program gives you the possibility to delete, rename, copy, or move the selected files, open the directory where a locked item is stored directly from the primary pane, kill processes, delete items permanently, as unlock all files or only the selected ones.

Since it doesn’t come bundled with many dedicated parameters, even rookies cam set up the entire process with minimum effort.

To sum things up, Free File Unlocker seems to be the right choice in case you are looking for an easy-to-use tool that lets you perform several tweaking operations to locked files. Thanks to its intuitive layout, it is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.
