We did not tried the patch for 8.0i. We are installing ePO 4 now! So we will roll-out 8.5i this week.
I can confirm that adding the extensions to the exclusion list solved our problems with the locked files. We will continue to do this with VS 8.5i.
Thank you all for your help!
I have not tried the tool yet because we rebooted the server yesterday and have no locked files at the moment.

So you have McAfee 8.5 installed and still have the issue... I was afraid of that...
Anyway will we exclude some extensions from the scan as advised on the other thread.

I have not tested the Process Monitor yet because we have no locked files at the moment. We rebooted the server yesterday for maintenance.
Sorry but the Unlocker tool never unlocked a file for me!
I will try the Process Monitor next time. Thanks to Magnum1976 for the link. See this thread:

We have an upgrade for McAfee planned next week to 8.5, hopefully this will resolve the annoying locked files.

But we want to know what is causing the lock. Is there...
We have exactly the same problem!
Only with AutoCAD .dwl files that are locked and sometimes some Excel and MsAccess .ldb files.
We are running 2003 Enterprise with only McAfee (8.0 patch 16) and BackupExec 10 installed.
Only a server reboot unlocks the files.
We have tried the Sysinternal...
