Try Save As and use a different file name.

or

Right click the layer and choose Duplicate, and from the drop-down choose New Then save the new document.

or

Right click and make a Smart Object.   Double click the SO which will open it in a new window as a PSB file, and save that.

I've not actually heard of PSD files being locked.
