It appears that a file I am working out of is locked. I am the owner and can't seem unlock it...It's just greyed out. How do I fix this so I can allow the other editors to edit the document?

Hi Christina, 


Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 



Note When you lock a file (using Box's locking feature), you will see a lock icon, but you are still be able to edit the file. If another user locks a file, any collaborator with Co-owner, Editor, or Viewer Uploader access can unlock it.


If you're unable to unlock despite your permission, please troubleshoot then try again. 


Hope it helps!
