Title: Failed to open deafult library
Post by: sirshambling on March 05, 2005, 08:47:45 am

On opening this build I got a "failed to open deafult library" message and none of the automated library backups from this month (created when I imported files) worked - all got the "library restore failed" message.

Is there anything I can do to get the library back?

TIA. John.

Did the install have problems?  Can you try installing again?

Hello Jim,

The install was fine as usual.

I tried build 201 - same problem. So I uninstalled from "add remove programs" and tried a new install of build 205. Same issues with the defualt library and trying to restore any of the automatic backups of March. I went back in time and found that the backup of 23 February worked and have restored that one. Then used "import media" to pick up everything I'd ripped/converted since then. So all has not been lost.

But it was/is very strange. Never had anything like this before in the years I've been using MC.
