After the user installs, it can be integrated into the right mouse button. When the user finds that a file or directory cannot be deleted, just press "Unlocker" in the right mouse button, then the program will immediately show which program is occupying the directory or file, and then just press the popup "Unlock" in the window will be able to unpack your files. The difference between Unlocker and other unlocking software is that it does not force the program that occupies the file to be closed. Instead, it unlocks the file and program connection, so it does not cause the user to close the program like other unlockers. The data is lost.
