Well, I have tried opening Microsoft Word, writing some dummy text in a file, save on my desktop while Microsoft Word is still running tried deleting the file, Windows complained that the file is in use, but Unlocker was sitting in the system tray with no action. Doing the same thing on one of my other computers at home which is running Windows XP Professional 32 Bit, Unlocker used intercept that call and displaying which process/program was locking the filer and offering to end the process. Nothing happens using this new version on Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit. Did anyone try it? Of course Unlocker v1.8.8 Portable doesn't even start, only asks for UAC prompt comes up, nothing after that. But that is an older version, so I was not expecting it to work.

I guess it helps to actually read the update information at the authors web site. Here is an important excerpt that should explain why the program you downloaded is not working on your W7 64 version. It should like the last line just might let you accomplish your quest. "From a x64 stand point, it took me a couple of hours to get it fully working on my machine. I still have to sign the driver which might require a lot of paperwork, but hopefully it will not take long. For the impatient kind, I can provide alpha versions :)" So it looks like you need to write the author and politely ask for a copy of the unsigned (Microsoft) "alpha" version.
