Solve : How to submit this tip to the CH tip page??

Answer»

Hello,

Sorry if I missed the link... I did look. Anyway; last night a
moment of "outside the box" inspiration allowed me to fix
my computer that I thought others MIGHT find it useful.

I needed to delete a locked file that was causing my internet
connection to crash, but Windows wouldn't let me even as
Admin and even with reboot.

Normally, in that scenario you would download any of a number
of freeware file UNLOCKING and DELETION apps, but as I said, I
had no internet. What to do?...What to do?

I opened up my anti virus, and with all the power of ring zero
authority, I moved the file to "quarantine" as though the file
were malware... Internet back up on reboot ...Problem solved!!!

Granted; you would RARELY need to use this TRICK, but it sure
got me out of a jam.

HTH

Without knowing exactly what file you're talking about, I don't think we can glean much from your post.
