How about pass your database file to MMEX developer to have a deeper look? also it would be appreciated to have some snapshots to illustrate your issues

Hi all, I have had a problem similar to Strongbow. Sometimes I got a page of a reoccurring transaction even though the data base would not open. I restarted my computer but when the screen went blank the computer hung and would not finish the restart. I had to power off the computer and power it on again to complete the restart. As suggested I down loaded the trial version of REVO Uninstaller Pro and uninstalled the Money Manager EX file, deleted all the files that it said needed deleting and did the suggested restart. All is now well and everything works, fingers crossed.

After the mmex started the ico should be in the tray.
Press and hold the shift button and right mouse click.
Choose Maximize in the context menu.

Further to my post on Dec 07. Had the same problem again. I am convinced that it happened when I did a manual restart to complete a windows 10 update. Before the restart I closed all open programmes except for MMEX which I forgot to close. After the restart completed the original problem reoccurred. Each time I tried to open a database nothing happened except for the first time that I tried when I got the message saying another instant of MMEX was open, when actually it was not. Again I used Revo uninstaller pro to uninstall and then reinstalled MMEX. All is working ok now.

Perhaps it is time for the developers to take a closer look at this problem.
