It integrates itself in the right-click context menu just like Unlocker does. Like Unlocker LockHunter becomes only active when the user right-clicks an item and selects the What is locking this file / folder option from the menu.

LockHunter will then display the path of the file and folder plus the processes that are locking the file.

Each process is listed by name and file path with the option to display additional information by clicking on the plus sign in the front.

The three buttons at the bottom of the interface provide the means to unlock the selected file or folder, delete it right away or to close or delete the process that is locking the file or folder on the computer system.

Options to unlock, close or delete the selected process become also available after right-clicking on them in the main window of the application. The main difference to Unlocker are the 64-bit support of the file unlocker and the amount of information that are displayed in the LockHunter interface.
