How to delete locked file

When you try to delete a file or folder, Windows warns you that it is locked by some process. And it is not always clear what exactly program does not allow to delete the file.

This is auto translated version of this post.

There are many programs for removal of locked files. But some of them are paid. Others do not support the latest version of Windows. Recently, I finally found a workable solution that unlocks the files on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, 2000-2016 Server, XP, Vista x64/x32/x86.

Delete.On.Reboot is a small utility for Windows that automatically deletes locked files and folders on system reboot.

Unlike analogue, for example, ThisIsMyFile Delete.On.Reboot it uses a standard Windows feature to delete locked files. Also, the program can move files to another folder.

The program supports dozens of languages and requires no installation.

Download Delete.On.Reboot
