LockHunter

What is LockHunter?

This free application empowers users to delete files blocked by any running processes, regardless of their source. Accessible on both 64-bit and 32-bit systems, LockHunter offers a robust solution to address issues caused by malware, system errors, or other programs unexpectedly obstructing file access. Uniquely, it sends deleted files to the Recycle Bin, allowing for easy restoration in case of accidental removal. LockHunter seamlessly integrates with the Windows Explorer context menu, providing a convenient way to access its functionality directly from the file system. Although currently in beta, this tool presents a reliable option for users to regain control over their file management, especially when faced with stubborn blockages
