Updated GM2 and now all events are locked and I can't edit any code.
I can not see how to unlock this anywhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does the object have a parent? In GMS2, children objects will show "ghost" events of the parent events they inherit, but opening them won't let you edit them as they don't actually belong to the object, but to the parent. I'm pretty sure these inherited events when visualised have that padlock (I can't open GMS2 currently to check). IIRC, there is a RMB menu option on ghosted events to open the parent for editing.

Ah that was the problem - thanks Nocturne
Not used GM2 for a while and totally blanked on what could be wrong.
