There was a way to "break the lock" in an older
version of SN, but it was remove during in 5.0.
We had intended to move the lock out of the
.proj file into a proj.lock file but ran out
of time to implement that change.

They are in the .snprj dir in the same directory.

I think refresh just checks file times while reparse will
reparse the files no matter what.

Ok...so how do you "break the lock" in SN 4.5.2?

When the project came up, it would ask you if you
wanted to break the lock. Thing is, this could
easily open the same project in two different SN
executables which would destroy the database.
You can't really do that now, but that does
not really help you since you are stuck with
a locked project. If you are interested in
hacking the source a bit, you could fix this.
Otherwise, adding a bug report to the bug DB
is the way to go.
