This program doesnt seem to work on my vista computer. Are there any programs that are equivalent that are as good that work on vista? thanks!

There's also FileAssassin, and on its homepage it's stated to be Vista compatible.

There doesn't appear to be by the comments on the Vista x64 forum, but apparently unlocker can be made to work.

EDIT: They mustn't have heard of FileAssassin.

thanks guys. ill give fileassassin a try

Just as an aside, while looking around for any other vista file unlockers I came across this thread, it's the same link as Dennis's but carries on from there.

I quickly became more interested in the comments of 2 of the members as the thread went on (you'll see why)

They certainly get into each other over there.

Hijackthis has a delete on reboot type app under misco tools.Don't know how good or if it works on Vista.

If anyone managed to grab the Paragon Partition Manager posted by Hazel there is an iso in it's program files install folder that you can burn to cd.

Booting from the cd will mount your partitions and you can the delete anything from there.

1984 are you trying to delete a file or just access one.

With Vista you can add the reg settings below that will add "Take Ownership" to your right click menu which when used will enable you to delete and or access most Vista files/folders.

hi guys. no just periodically i need to use unlocker and was kind of planning ahead for its use. ive taken a look at fileassassin and it looks pretty good. additionally there is a tweak for unlocker for vista, but i didnt want to wait till i really needed it to have to play with it.
