Locked files in Revit

vjaqpf — Thu, 08 Oct 2020 23:21:05 GMT

I frequently get the message: The file is locked by: Autodesk Revit (3292) and the only solution found is to shut down the computer and restart. Anyone know of a more efficient solution ?

Hi, @vjaqpf what antivirus do you have? It usually gives certain problems of them, I recommend that you deactivate it and try working to see if the problem persists.

Juan Francisco, thank you for your timely response.
I have been using AVAST Premium for a long time, but the crashing problem
occurs sometimes, so I think that it would not be the cause because it
would always happen. As I mentioned, my solution has been to shut down the
computer and restart it. There must be something that Revit produces, the
error message notifies it.

Thanks Juan Francisco.
I read the recommended documents carefully and I cannot find a case similar
to mine. As I mentioned, the problem appears to me sometimes, and is when
applying "Build" the message is: The file is locked by: Autodesk Revit
(3292), (this number varies), that is, the .dll cannot be overwritten .
When reviewing the "File properties" no irregularity is noticed. Such an
error happens even when Revit is closed, and the only thing that solves the
problem for me is restarting the computer.
When the issue occurs again, I will review this documentation to see if any
of the suggestions apply.
