We continue to see recurring, supremely frustrating problems on some Vista machines in the
field. Something in Vista-world is locking one or more of our DBISAM files, causing our
entire application to fail.


Our database is held under %APPDATA% in a directory to effect:

%APPDATA%\Cool Software Inc\Our Product\Database.v5\


We have tried everything we can think of:

1) completely uninstalled anti virus software
2) uninstalled anti spyware software


We are at our wits' end and need help.

Suggestions?

Thank you!!

Sam,

I really can't do much to help you at this point.  Did you try download
FileMon from here:

and see what is holding the lock(s) ?

We are going to try to use this approach... if we can get access to the system when the
problem is present.

We have found that some Vista machines come with a new form of Windows Firewall installed
which needs to be changed for the machines to access our database effectively. I guess
this might be causing your problem??
