I have a project that was started before the Excel Import plugin and profile were discontinued by Nomagic. I upgraded a while back but didn't notice that the Excel Import Profile project usage had not been expunged from my project during the update. Subsequently, I: 1) created a branch from trunk, and 2) removed that project usage from trunk. Now, when I'm trying to merge the branches, I get the following error that prevents the merge from completing.

Excerpt 1: 
2024-03-14 18:47:01,725 [pool-MagicDraw-thread-23:Find project differences] [6 Get differences] INFO  merge.GENERAL - Total differences in modules: 68
2024-03-14 18:47:01,726 [pool-MagicDraw-thread-23:Find project differences] [6 Get differences] INFO  merge.GENERAL - file:/C:/Users//Downloads/Excel%20Import%20Profile.mdzip 68

Excerpt 2:2024-03-14 19:00:28,120 [pool-MagicDraw-thread-63:Lock Elements for Editing] [ ] WARN  merge.GENERAL - Module locked by others - Excel Import Profile

I thought it would have been caused by the tool not being able to access the profile, but when I dug up an old copy of the profile from my old installation and manually pointed the merge tool at the profile during merge information loading, it still failed this same way. Since this is a module that isn't on the server, it doesn't make any sense to me that the log file says it's 'locked by others'.

Has anyone else seen (and hopefully solved) this problem?
