How to unlock a locked profile

Written by Yelena V ( Updated on April 14th, 2025 )

Updated on April 14th, 2025

Browser profiles can stay locked after closing to prevent sync issues and protect your data. This typically happens if:

  • The profile closed unexpectedly
  • A process became corrupted

When this occurs, you’ll see a padlock icon instead of the usual Launch/Stop buttons. No worries though – it’s easy to fix! Here’s what to do:

  1. Stop all running profiles
  2. Click the “Unlock profiles” button in the top-right corner of the app
  3. Refresh the page

Don't have the “Unlock profiles” button? Then do the following:

  1. Stop all running profiles
  2. Disconnect the agent
  3. Delete the .lock files
  4. Refresh the Multilogin X dashboard
  5. Connect the agent again
  6. If the padlock icon still appears, you will see the new “Unlock profiles” button in the top-right corner
  7. Click “Unlock profiles” – the padlock icon will disappear, revealing the launch button again

 If you encounter problems connecting the agent, follow these steps to resolve them.
