Simply remove your username from the system. To make it playable
again, re-enter the username and password with which the content
was originally locked.
If you attempt to play locked content on an Mbox server and the correct

content image on the screen. You will only see this image if "No
Diagnostics" is not checked on the Setup tab. Otherwise, you will receive
no notification that a file is locked as nothing will appear on the screen.
