Prompted to make new DB every time #13

Open boston2029 opened 6 months ago

boston2029 commented 6 months ago

Every time I launch it, I go through the database create process again. It does say "db already exists here, override or open current?" so it's only a minor inconvenience, but im wondering why it happens. Would it work if I got the old Neat.exe? Because maybe the patch makes it show setup every single time. Idk. Thanks!

The patch doesn't touch your settings, so not sure what the issue would be? I would verify where Neat thinks your database is via the settings: C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Local\The Neat Company\Neat\Config\Config.nrcfg

 <Entry>
    <Key>DatabaseLocation</Key>
    <Value>C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Documents\Neat Data\</Value>
  </Entry>

The above is the default value. I would update the VALUE to where ever the database lives.
