  However ..... manually deleting it IS an option. But if you need help 
how to do that, far more basic than gnucash. You are asking, "given the 
operating system I am using, how do I find a file and how do I delete a 
file?"

BUT --- the existence of those .lck and .lnk files are NOT "locking 
gnucash" (not locking the PROGRAM). The are locking (from the program) 
the corresponding DATA file, not allowing the program to open THAT data 
file. You only perceive it as locking the program because you don't have 
OTHER gnucash data files (other sets of books).
