lost connection to database on external drive

PostSun Jun 20, 2021 7:45 pm

I have a database on an external drive. It was been working perfectly.

The database no longer shows up in the projects panel. The projects panel now tells me the database is not connected. I try a re-connect, and it tells me it's already connected.

Thoughts?

How is that drive formatted?
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.

"Was" being a reeeeeally good reason to use only internal drives for this work. ;)
