If a user has a page open for editing, Contribute creates a lock file (identified by a .lck extension) that prevents other users from editing that page. In the following instances, you may need to delete a lock file to allow another user to edit such a page:
Before overriding a checked out page in Contribute, ensure that the person who last worked with the page really is finished working with it and cannot unlock the page using Contribute or Dreamweaver.
To delete a lock file:
The File Placeholder Page appears when Contribute encounters a file type that it cant open. Because the Contribute lock file is of a special type, Contribute cannot display it.
Note: This menu item is disabled if you do not have permission to delete pages from your website. If this is the case, you must enable file deletion for the users permission group. For more information, see Setting folder and file access permissions.
An alert asks whether you are certain that you want to delete the file.
Another alert appears warning that you are deleting a special file, and asking if you want to proceed.
Contribute deletes the lock file and displays the last page you viewed.
