[H] Problems with 'Unlocker'

2014-09-01 Thread Steve Tomporowski
Early this morning, I was cleaning up some files, transferring them to 
various disks/servers when I came upon a mp4 file that would not move.  
I copied it over ok, but when I went to delete it, Windows would hang at 
'Calculating...' and I had to cancel.  I tried the direct delete, that 
had the same problem.  So I installed Unlocker 1.89.  It installed but I 
couldn't get it to start.  I searched and found that there was a 1.92 
version.  That installed and worked and I was able to delete the file.


Then the fun began.  I tried to go to Control Panel and the window was 
empty.  In fact, even searching gave no results.  I tried windows 
explorer and although I got the libraries, no drives showed up.  Finally 
I just did a System Restore and all was fine.


I guess this is just a heads up as something screwy had happened. Or is 
it just me.

I would like to know about this too, Steve. Hope some of our friends can
give us some information. I have an older version, which only helps about
50% of the time. I am hesitant to download and install the newer version
after your question appeared.

Your six is clear, just rest the nose on the horizon and enjoy the sunset.
