"Not a database file"

Post by PhSla452 » Wed 27 Jun 2018 11:48

Hi folks!
Since I have updated Windows 10 on Notebook Lenovo IdeaPad, i cannot access the DBF file. It just goes to a gray screen and gives the following message: "Not a database file"
Any thoughts why? anyone have had similar issue?

Please compose a small test sample to demonstrate the error. In it, include all the tables files (.dbf and index files) used in this sample. Then use the contact form at our site https://www.devart.com/company/contactform.html and send us a sample.

Hi! You can use following solutions:
1) Restore the file from a valid backup copy.
2) In case of no backup, for any issues related dbf files you can get help here: http://www.dbf.repair/
