Lock position in assembly

Hello,
I’m working on an assembly and I’m having trouble keeping one part fixed in place.
When I use the "Lock at current position" option, I can still move the part on its own, and it even shifts when I add mate features with other components.
Can anyone explain what the lock actually does, and how I can properly keep a part fixed ?
Thanks in advance !

Hello Benoit.
In an assembly, right click on a part to bring up a menu. Within that menu select Fix. - Scotty
