DeadLock

DeadLock is a Windows application for unlocking files and folders occupied by third-party processes. It is possible to check the properties of the executable file and customize access rights.

Selecting items

After launching the program, the main panel opens, which allows the user to immediately specify the object to be unlocked. Many users face this situation. If for some reason a program or process continues to interact with a file, many operations are unavailable - deleting, moving, changing the name and others. It is possible to view additional information about a file. To do this, just call the context menu on the necessary record and select the "Details" option. The lower part of the window will display additional data about the process that blocks the file.

Actions

The main purpose of the application is to unlock such items. For this purpose, the process is calculated and forced to unload. This is enough to allow the file to be used in normal mode. A separate panel allows you to further customize access rights to the file. This will avoid difficulties in the future. As an additional option, there is a possibility to check a suspicious file for the presence of malicious code. This will not be superfluous, since such activity is often used by viruses to gain a foothold in the compromised system. The popular VirusTotal platform is used for checking.

Features

• the program allows you to quickly unlock a directory or file by deactivating the corresponding process;
• view information about the process and check the file for viruses;
• ability to grant extended file access privileges;
• the application is distributed free of charge.
