Notes about the LOCK file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The LOCK file type is primarily associated with '.NET Framework' by Microsoft Corporation. This file format is associated with the .NET feature that creates databases of the form _MSL.DB. The .LOCK file indicates a database is in use and prevents other applications from changing it. If the .LOCK file persists on a system the using application is likely not correctly handling the database.
