In the old days of DVDP (free-version) many images in the DB used to get replaced with images of less quality, so many images in my collection were locked to prevent this.

Other than unlocking one by one, is there a way to find all the profiles with locked images in my collection to unlock them all at once before updating ?

Depends of what you like in the online database. For covers the risk is low, and you can before your update  make a backup file to restore covers that you prefered. For other data, I consider the quality of online as very poor, with hundreds of horrible mistakes on names, stupid overviews, useless dividers, not matching genres... and all my profiles are locked for all data.

Thanks Surfeur for your input, I'll just use the 'compare' feature to double check first then, I guess things haven't changed much, I remember there was a sort of 'war-of-profiles-entries" going on years ago, many perfect profiles were changed to the wrong disc version's profile, I hardly ever updated anything for that reason...
