What is WindowsXP AVI Fix?

Introducing WindowsXP AVI Fix

Windows XP remains one of the most popular operating systems ever launched by Microsoft, even if it is no longer supported by the company as of April 2014. Despite being appreciated and used all over the world, this OS still has its fair share of faults, that third-party developers tried to mend by coming up with dedicated apps.

Key Features:

• Fixes AVI files locking issue in Windows XP


• GUI for easy one-click operation


• Restores access to previously locked data

Technical Specifications:

• Operating System: Windows XP


• File Type: AVI


• Interface: Graphical User Interface


• Price: Free

WindowsXP AVI Fix is especially handy for those who get annoyed by the way AVI videos get locked every time they are selected in Windows Explorer. The OS typically locks them for a few seconds to retrieve information about them, such as image width and height, audio duration, format, and bitrate or video framerate and data rate. However, when dealing with very large files, the locking period can last longer.

The reason why this could prove frustrating to users is that during this interval, the said AVI files cannot be moved, erased, or even renamed. WindowsXP AVI Fix can prove useful by providing a straightforward GUI that allows users to overcome this AVI lock with a single mouse click. To ensure the process is successful, it is recommended to restart the computer.

Once the fix has been applied, users no longer get access to the data previously displayed in the Summary section of the Properties window (found in the right-click menu). Those who want to restore the functionality can do so just as easily by using the second option from the main window - this too should be followed by a computer restart, just to make sure no issues occur.
