Need to unlock word file
There is a file in C:\windows named "sti_trace.log" that when opened in Word
2000 states "locked for editing by another user". I am the ONLY USER ! This file is growing and has data in it for over 3 years and is 357 pages long and 907 kb. It has some kind of start up information which it adds every time I boot up and refers to a file named "stimon.exe" which is in C:\windows\system. I would like to unlock it so I can delete all of the old information. Any ideas ???? |

Any ideas ???? yes: this has nothing to do with Word. :-) The file is used by Windows itself (belongs to the Still Image Monitor). Searching for this file with the search engine of your trust reveals one is supposed to get to it through "msconfig" -- and that the file is harmless. For more, please ask the fellows in any Windows group.
