Hi defcon5

I´ve got the same problem with the connecting if my client pc

In the server management i saw that the sqldatabase is running and starts automatic, but the sqlbrowser dosnt.

Erbsenkopp


sorry, you wrote "Failed to open" - in my case was "Failed to connect"

Did you delete the .mdf AND .ldf files of the TVLibrary after uninstall ?
