So that worked, who knows why but everything is working again. I hope others might see that advice and benefit from it.
Many thanks Renato

Many thanks for the feedback.
Yes, as I have often written, the configuration file mmexini.db3 is often damaged by this problem.

Re: Can't Open Database
Ayer pedia ayuda ya que no podia abrir la págna del programa MMEX_My money. debo informar que uso Window 10 y el programa desde hace 10 años como minimo, siguiendo las indicaciones de TimP58, he copiado en un disco externo los archivos de datos y seguidamente borre todos los programas y carpetas que tenia de Money.
Seguidamente me he vuelto a bajar la aplicación 1.3.5-win64 , acción realizada anteriormente siguiendo los consejos de actualizar el programa,con resultado del error, pero hoy ya FUNCIONA CORRECTAMENTE, si bien no se ha creado el Enlace directo en el Escritorio y compruebo que para subir a Excell los informes NO Funciona, se direcciona a petición de datos a Internet http:/// ......
Gracias por su atención .

Re: Can't Open Database
Hi All,
MMEX doesnt want to open fully, after my computer did a compulsory update this morning.
I am running Windows 10 Home, Windows Build 19041.450
The Money Manager App opens, but then is a blank white screen.
Any idea of what I need to do to get it back up and running.
Hate the windows updates!
Please help! Desperate! Love your app!!!

Re: Can't Open Database
@bransonbe In your screenshot it looks like the window might just be off screen. You might try the suggestions in this article: https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows ... ard-trick/
This can happen if you switch between multiple monitors and one monitor (e.g. undocking/unplugging a laptop computer).

Re: Can't Open Database
As a new member of this forum but not a new user of MM I hope I will be forgiven (a) if this has been mentioned before or (b) if this question is in the wrong place or (unlikely) out of order. I have noticed by looking through recent threads and posts that a fair number of people have been having difficulties in accessing their files for a variety of reasons with a number of people, including myself, being unable to 'get in' as the program reports that the db is already open. This isn't the first time I have experienced this. The most recent solution suggested by Renato worked for me and others to whom it was suggested. This solution was to delete C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\MoneyManagerEx\mmexini.db3. I renamed the file initially rather than deleting it but sure enough it did the trick and a new .db3 was created next time I exited the program.
I presumed therefore that my .db3 file had become corrupted. If that is the case and this is happening to others too is this a problem that the Developers would look at as it must put a lot of people off MM unnecessarily. Personally, even with this occurring to me more than once over the years, I rate MM highly and would hate to see people put off using it due to what I would call a 'bug'.
Is it worth someone looking at this issue to see if an answer can be found to prevent it?

Re: Can't Open Database
I am also of the opinion that a correction is due here.
But it is just that the programming capacity depends on the availability of volunteer programmers.
Most of the time it is very difficult to find the error, especially if you have no further information how the error was created.
May I ask you to send me the broken and the working .db3 file via PM. (there is no confidential data in it, only settings)
