Database gone/ Now the program can't start
Hi, I had a power outage while running H2N 4 and it seems it happened what other players here have experienced: the database has become corrupted and no longer works. When I started againg H2N 4 after the power outage it appeared the 'main page' asking me to import hands, like there wasn't any database. So I imported all the saved hands to create another database, with some errors during the process (a few hands weren't imported), but ok. Now though, when I opened the program again, it remains in the 'loading' window forever and it can't start. I think that maybe is trying to open the corrupted database instead of the new one or something. Or maybe they're two unrelated issues, I don't know. For what is worth, in the 'appdata' - 'roaming' - hand2note' - 'databases' folder I can see both databases, the old one and the one just created. I could try uninstalling and installing the program again and then copy the 'config' folder with all the stats and HUD I created? If there isn't any risk of losing them and it can be easily copy-pasted or exported-imported. Any help will be very appreciated, thanks

Hello!
Could you try deleting these folders and all files except the hands folder from the path where your database is stored? By default, it's located here: C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Hand2Note\Databases\Name of your database:
Then launch Hand2Note and click on 'Build Statistics'
If it doesn't help, you'll have to delete the entire database, unfortunately. But you can restore your hands by importing the following folders C:\Hand2NoteHh\ and C:\MyHandsArchive_H2N\ to the new database.
