    How many instances of SQL Server do you have on the computer?

    Well, something has got a lock on your master database file. Maybe you or someone else are trying to open it in a text editor, for some reason? If you can't find out what it is, I'd be tempted to restart the server to release the lock on the file.

    try using a file unlocker to check witch process is reading the file, or use procmon.


    If you need to work better, try working less...
