    Everytime I try and put in my password I get "Database could not be opened! Be careful not to accidentely overwrite your database, if you continue to work with the empty template."  Do I have a corrupt db?  Is there a fix or am I SOL?
    Thanks.

      That's an odd message. Make a backup of the database before going any further - just in case.
      How do you attempt to open the database? File | Open?
      Where is the database stored?
      Can you create a new database?

      cheers, Paul

      Well I have about 10-15 saved passwords in the one giving me that message.  It was working fine then all of a sudden I can't open it.  I did create a new "test" one and was able to open it. I just can't open the one I need.

      thanks

      Oh and when I look at the file I want to open in File Explorer it's size is 0B

      0 bytes means the file has effectively been deleted. You may have had a machine crash or disk problem and will have to go to a backup.

      If you don't have a backup, check out this backup guide. http://www.techtalkwiki.net/how_to_backup_your_computer

      cheers, Paul
