Abstract Ramdisks are volatile memory-based storage volumes that offer high-speed read/write operations. However, files stored on a ramdisk can become locked by running processes, preventing modification, deletion, or unmounting. This paper presents the concept, design, and implementation of a Ramdisk File Unlock Tool – a utility that identifies and releases file locks within a ramdisk filesystem. The tool leverages operating system APIs to enumerate open file handles, force lock release, and safely clean up resources. Use cases include temporary file system maintenance, software testing, and forensic memory analysis. 1. Introduction A ramdisk (RAM drive) is a block of system memory configured to behave like a disk drive. It provides extremely low-latency I/O, making it ideal for temporary data, cache, or high-performance computing tasks. However, because ramdisks are volatile and often small, managing locked files is critical. A file may be locked by an application crash, a background service, or improper handle closure. Standard OS tools may not easily release these locks without rebooting or unmounting the ramdisk – which destroys its contents.
