It's a bit more complicated than that. I think MSDN explains it best:Am I correct in saying:
Locking means - enabling direct disk access
&
Dismounting means - to invalidate all open handles to the drive?
Is there any other subtle difference?
FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME
FSCTL_DISMOUNT_VOLUME
Thanks for helping outIt's working now, however, and just in case, I am attaching it.

Looks like Mediafire was down for at least a day
Thanks for your feedback Ullinice tool - thanks for posting it
I use it with VMware Workstation 7.11 on a 2008 R2 host to run VMs that use physical disks.
Way easier to use this tool then having to use the other known workarounds.
