Break locks on objects

The Administrator can break locks on objects locked by users. The Administrator can both break a lock on a specific object or break all locks made by a user.

  1. To break a lock on a specific object, in the tree view, locate and right-click the object and then click Break lock.

    • If the Administrator is breaking a lock on a folder or a project, the "Break lock" window appears. Select the user who locked the folder/project and click OK. All objects belonging to the folder are now unlocked.

  2. To break all locks made by a user, in the tree view, click Users.
  3. In the right pane, right-click the user account, and then click Break lock.

    All objects in KCM Repository that are locked by this user are now unlocked.
