Cant start poker tracker

[dillon113]

error says the microsoft jet database engine cannot open the file c:\programfiles\pokertrackerv2\hhdb.mdb it is allready open by another user or you need permission to view this data (and im the only user on this computer) i click ok it brings me to a logon screen for ptrackhh asking for a password

Restart the computer.
Go to the Start menu and select Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Data Sources (ODBC)
Click on the System DSN tab
Click on the PTRACKHH entry and click the Configure button.
On the next window, click the Repair button and then OK again when prompted.
If this works, try PT again.

Go to the c:\program files\poker tracker v2 folder.
Is there a file called hhcopy.mdb there?
If so, rename the hhdb.mdb file to hhdb_bad.mdb and then rename the hhcopy.mdb file to hhdb.mdb and try it again.

says cannot rename access denied and to makesure the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use

[ptrack pat]

Restart the computer and try it again. There is nothing PT is doing that should be making you not be able to rename the file.
