File Edit Lock
Locking a file prevents others from modifying its content. Useful for preventing accidental changes to a finalized document or an official file.
Setting and Releasing a Lock
Right-click a file and select Edit and Version > Edit Lock. You can release the lock the same way.
The user who locked the file can still modify it without unlocking it first.
Good to Know
- Locked files show a lock icon next to the file name.
- Only the user who set the lock and administrators can release it.
- A file that is already locked cannot be locked again by another user.
