sorry, but that's absolute nonsense!

The message is displayed when an update is attempted, but the installation directory is still locked by "lock"

The solution to the "problem" is already in the message:
the "lock" file must be removed from the install directory

@pebel use your ftp-client to remove this file

Thank you is done

However, this file should only be removed if you want to perform an update
