# Reverting — Releasing a Lock

If you have locked an EMS server, you can release the lock using the Revert icon. This command discards all your configuration edits and releases the lock.

Warning: Releasing a lock without first deploying configuration changes causes Central Administration to discard all edits.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to the Server Overview Page, or any properties page for the server.
2. Click Revert .
3. In the dialog box that appears, click Yes to discard your configuration changes or No to cancel the action and keep the lock.
