9.5.10. Locking or unlocking files

When editing a file, you can lock the file. The lock has the following purposes:

  • The file lock informs other users that the file is currently being edited and might no longer be up-to-date.

  • If the file is located in a folder that you share with other users whom you granted edit permissions, those users can not edit the locked file.

You can lock or unlock a single file or multiple files at once.

How to unlock a file:
