Jan, Still problems with file locking. W8.1.1 x64 Ent. Set PSPad to lock file method. Open file in PSPad (lock file now created) then open file in Notepad and make changes in Notepad and save. Go back to PSPad; PSPad recognizes changes. Note this is by same user. Now same happens with R\O method. With both methods no dialog is raised to say file is locked for editing. So as far as I can see no actual locking takes place. Lastly UI "Apply" button never becomes active if you change this setting. Pete
