DelLater software by DiamondCS can remove locked files on Windows systems by utilizing the method approved by Microsoft for deleting files in use.
DelLater uses the only method recommended by Microsoft to delete files that are in use. This method is based on documentation from Microsoft that describes a function called MoveFileEx, and DelLater has been carefully designed to be technically accurate to the guidelines set forth in the article. This is the same technique used by anti-virus scanners when they're unable to delete in-use files.
If you're worried about whether or not your operating system supports MoveFileEx, don't be - although this function isn't supported under Windows 95/98/ME, the article does describe how to implement the same functionality, which DelLater does. And if you're not technically inclined, you don't need to understand the Microsoft article - DelLater simplifies everything for you.
Overall, if you're looking for a reliable, effective solution to deleting files that are in use, DiamondCS DelLater is definitely worth considering.
