Anyway, onto how to get Alohomora in Hogwarts Legacy.
How do I get Alohomora in Hogwarts Legacy?
You need to be level 15 before you can go on the quest to get alohomora. Once you are, go and speak to the caretaker. Luckily, the caretaker’s Lunar Lament is a main quest, so it’s impossible to miss this charm.
The mission requires you to maneuver around, avoiding prefects and teachers as you do so. You need to remove two demiguise statues and return to the caretaker. Don’t worry, he tells you everything you need to know at the start of the quest.
As a reward for your help, he teaches you Hogwarts Legacy Alohomora.
How do I use Hogwarts Legacy Alohomora?
After you unlock the charm, you need only approach locks on chests and doors and press the interact button to use it. However, some of them require a higher proficiency with the spell, so make sure you keep an out for more demiguise statues to strengthen your use of Alohomora.

Hogwarts Legacy has drawn considerable criticism during its development, largely due to the fact that the creator of the Harry Potter series, J.K. Rowling, has made a number of transphobic remarks on social media in recent years.
While Avalanche has confirmed that J.K. Rowling is not “directly involved” in the development of Hogwarts Legacy, it is working with “her team” and Portkey Games, a Warner Bros. label dedicated to launching new experiences inspired by J.K. Rowling’s original stories. It is currently unclear whether she will earn any royalties from the game’s sale, but it is likely given it is based on her original body of work.
