Comment 3 for bug 1172533

I also have this problem, even though there are no spaces or %20 in my user name.

I can't get bazaar to work correctly in Windows 7 for the life of me. I keep getting errors saying that it "Could not acquire lock "(local)": file:///c:/..."

Any GUI tools freeze up and crash for the exact same reason as yours.

Could not acquire lock "(local)": file:///c:/Users/s.../AppData/Roaming/bazaar/2.0/lock

I need this to work because that's what we use at my job and so far I can't collaborate my work unless I use cygwin which doesn't have all the fancy GUI tools.
