[GNC] My file is locked

[Jack Lockard]

Navigate to the folder on the computer (server) that contains the data files. Find the .lck file and delete it. You should be good to go then.

Hey folks,
I Have my GNU file on another computer (server) than the one I use it on (client ).
The program closed and when I open it won't let me, cuz it is locked. It says someone has it open and asks me do I want to open it anyway. I say yes but nothing happens.
Does anyone know what to do?

Thank
Dan
