The database location is not writable or does not exist. Networx will use a temporary in-memory database 17 August 2015, 17:34 |
"The database location'C:\ProgramData\SoftPerfect\NetWorx\Networx.db is not writable or does not exist. Networx will use a temporary in-memory database whose contents will disappear upon exiting the application!"
I deleted C:\ProgramData\SoftPerfect\NetWorx\ and reinstalled but got the same error. Installer recreates the Networx folder in ProgramData\SoftPerfect but does not copy anything to it.
Launching the app produces a crash...

Also could you please generate a file operations log with the Process Monitor? I'd only need to see file operations performed by networx.exe.

initially, i experienced the same issue with newly updated from 5.4 to 5.4.1 on Windows 10, 64 bit, home edition i think. It is a Intel i7 4770. *** I manually unzipped .exe and another 64bit file and pasted those to \Program Files\NetWorx folder
I also changed all users to have full permission on \ProgramData\SoftPerfect and its sub directories, however, that Networx.db error msg appeared at start up each time.
WORKAROUND
I manually uninstall NetWorx by clicking on \Program Files\NetWorx\unins000.exe (NetWorx was not listed in w10's Program List), followed by reboot.
Installed networx_setup.exe (v5.4.1), did my settings and reboot... error message was gone!
* For future updates, I think I will first uninstall old edition, reboot, then install new edition.
