In very rare cases, you may encounter a database corruption. There are multiple possible reasons for that (e.g. Windows crash, hard drive problems etc.). TimeSnapper tries to fix this automatically but sometimes it is not possible.<br />
<br />
Here is a typical error when that happens:<br />
database file appears corrupt ()<br />
bad checksum<br />
checksum error on database page xxxxxx<br />
<br />
Unfortunately in this case, you will need to start with a fresh database, in which case you will lose some information. These are the steps you need to perform:<br />
<br />
* Click Start -> Run<br />
* Paste in: %localappdata%\Timesnapper\Database<br />
* Click OK => this should open the location where TimeSnapper database is located.<br />
* Rename the database file, e.g. from "TIMESNAPPER.FDB" to "TIMESNAPPER - CORRUPT.FDB" (make sure TimeSnapper isn't running)<br />
* Start TimeSnapper again => TimeSnapper will recreate a new database and you will need to re-register the license<br />
* Re-configure TimeSnapper as you prefer (don't forget to set the Auto-clean up as you want to have it - so it doesn't delete any images)<br />
* Import the images</div>Atlioddsson
