3.0/5

FreeFile is a simple-to-use application that gives you the possibility to release files and folders that are currently being used by other programs. This way, you can move, rename or delete them from the PC, for example.

It's wrapped in a user-friendly interface made from a large window with a neatly structured layout, where you can resort to the file browser to locate a locked file or folder.

The tool automatically identifies the process that's utilizing the item and enables you to terminate it with one click. Worth noting is that it shows all files held by the specified process, in order to release all of them at the same time.

You can analyze process properties, such as the owner name and SID, full path and description, in addition to the process ID, priority, working set, priority class, virtual and peak virtual memory, along with the start and total processor time.

The entire program's packed in a single .exe file that can be saved to a custom directory on the disk or copied to a removable storage unit, in order to seamlessly run it on any PC with as little effort as possible.

Just keep in mind that an older version of .NET Framework must be installed, otherwise it won't launch. It doesn't add new entries to the system registry or create files on the HDD without your permission.

It didn't put a strain on the computer's performance in our tests, thanks to the fact that it required a low amount of CPU and RAM to function normally. We haven't come across any stability issues, as it didn't freeze, crash or indicate errors.

To conclude, FreeFile provides users with a simple means of terminating processes in order to release all utilized files to be able to perform various file operations, such as moving, copying or renaming. Thanks to its intuitive interface and options, it can be easily handled by anyone.
