Any help would be much appreciated - I’m an artist who uses DT to edit reference images so not DT specialist

Thanks
Phil

PS Hope I’m in the right forum?!

Yesterday darktable 3.2.1 was released, so you might want to consider upgrading to that one. You may need to delete the program files of the old version, in case there is a stale file there causing trouble.

Just one question, is your windows version running 32 bit or 64 bit?

Windows 8 is no longer supported by Microsoft. You should switch to windows 10 or Linux to have a secure system.

Thanks Matt - 3.2.1 did the trick - I’m on 64 bit. A further question - I copied the database files before the new install - and the new files are different - smaller in fact - can I replace the new with the old?

Thanks

Phil

3.2.1 has some automatic database maintenance, so it is possible for it to be smaller.

Ok thanks very much for the advice - spot on as usual!!

Best wishes

I am currently trying to install a new ssd and a fresh windows 10 - wish me luck!
