Hello,
I've been away from home for a few weeks and used my USB drive on another computer to access my accounts.
Upon my return, I opened the accounts from the USB on my PC, but I can't save them on the PC.
Error: cannot find the database.
I need to keep using the USB (which is not practical).
Who can help me?
Thank you.

    Hello....

    Personally, I don't know Money Manager but I am quite familiar with MsMoney... It may be due to the different user name of the PC on which you were making your backups... and your personal PC doesn't recognize this backup... I could be wrong, but that's how it is with MsMoney..
    Have you tried to "trick" Money Manager by renaming (old user name) your backup after making a copy for safety....

    See you later

      On the other PC (netbook) .. so you have no issues then?
      Weird thing!
      In Money Manager, do you have another backup method?... For example, on an external hard drive or burning to CD/RW to try another backup method
      See you!

    Hello, on the other PC the software is installed but I was only working with my USB drive to be able to send it to my PC
    the version of MONEY MANAGER EX is 0.9.9.0
    the error is: WXSQLITE_ERROR [1000]: no Database opened
    I have always done it this way without any problem
    best regards

    Hello ...

    Unfortunately, I don't have the solution to your issue because it seems that you are not using this software very well, which is installed on the hard drive of the machine ... but you are "feeding" it via a USB stick ... while it is meant for backing up data ... but ??
