SFDX CLI - Locked with an active writer?
I'm getting the following error when trying to access the sfdx command :
Does any one know what's happening ?
I can't find anything here nor on the internet..
I tried re-installing the CLI + rebooting my PC, but it still persists.
EDIT : I tried sfdx update -->
salesforcedx cli

Looks like an update operation failed or got stuck and didn't remove its lock file. If you manually deleteupdate.lock
in the directory shown, does the issue resolve?

Sometimes processes fail unexpectedly and leave behind lock files. In most cases you should be able to manually remove the file by navigating to your local AppData
folder (the file will live elsewhere on other operating systems) and deleting it from your file manager.
Sounds like you've been able to resolve this issue just by removing update.lock
.
