Description Libor Fischmeistr 2013-07-31 08:20:07 UTC 
There should be mechanism that deletes lock file from the userdir even if the IDE is killed from the task manager.

It could be done via registry record:

-then the lock file will have been deleted after system reboot.

There may be some other ways better than it. I think it's worth investigation.
