    NT8 Won't start

    While trying to close and restart NT8 I accidentally clicked on close all windows from the icon in the desktop tray. Then closed from the control center and saved the layout. Now when I try to open NT8 I get this error message:

    Unable to connect to DB: The database file may be corrupted. Run the repair utility to check the database file.

    But I don't have access to the control center the run the repair.

    What should I do?

    These steps seemed to fix it:

    Shutdown NinjaTrader and Go to the Start Menu
    Select My Documents--> NinjaTrader 8--> DB--> NinjaTrader.SDF.
    Right click on NinjaTrader.SDF and select "Rename." *Name it "OLDNinjaTrader.SDF."
    Then restart the software and NinjaTrader will create a fresh database file to use

    Thank you

      Hello brmacy,

      Thank you for your post.

      Just to confirm, you are now able to launch the platform and are no longer receiving this error?

      I look forward to your reply.
