I tried to update my Engine DJ to the newest Version. But now I get this Error Message:

A database on C: is incompatible. The dtabase on this drive is from a newer version of Engine and is not compatible with this version

But I am on the newest Version of Engine, I can’t update to a newer one. I get that something changed with the Databases when changing to 4.1 and higher. But shouldnt I be able to merge my old Library to the newer Version?

Many Thanks Lee

Yikes. This sounds like that Super Troopers “pull the vehicle over” scene

Sounds like you might have a corrupt DB ☹
