UseLockReadUnlock

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters

Data type Range Default value
REG_DWORD 0 | 1 1

Description

Determines whether the lock-and-read and write-and-unlock performance enhancements are enabled. These features improve performance when an application locks data and then reads the data immediately thereafter, or writes data and then unlocks it immediately.

Value Meaning
0 Lock-and-read and write-and-unlock features are not enabled.
1 Enables the lock-and-read and write-and-unlock features.
 

Caution Image Caution

Setting this value to 1 usually improves performance significantly. However, it degrades the performance of database applications that lock a range of data and do not allow data within that range to be read.
