The statement "Unmanaged packages do not include locked components but can be upgraded" is partially true.

Unmanaged packages are a way to distribute and install customizations in Salesforce. They are typically used by developers and administrators to share their work with others, such as other teams or orgs.

Unmanaged packages do not include locked components, which are components that cannot be modified or deleted. These include components like standard objects, fields, and some system components.

However, unmanaged packages can contain components that are marked as "managed," meaning they are owned by a managed package. Managed components cannot be modified or deleted by the package recipient, and any changes to them must be made by the package owner.

Additionally, unmanaged packages can be upgraded if a new version of the package is released. Upgrading an unmanaged package installs the new version on top of the existing version, and any changes made to the package by the recipient will be overwritten.

So, in summary, the statement is true that unmanaged packages do not include locked components, but it is important to note that they can contain managed components and can be upgraded.
