If the file was locked by yourself(same svn account), you can follow these steps:

Right click on the locked file or folder, and select TortoiseSVN->Get lock... , and check on "[] Steal the locks" at the bottom left corner of the dialog, click "OK". If it complete successfully, that's ok. When you right click on the file again, you can see TortoiseSVN->Release lock..., click to unlock.
