PhotoVCarve Tool Database

Post by Win Brayer »

I attempted to change the Photovcarve tool database to my Vcarve Pro tool database and now Photovcarve doesn't recognize any database. I added .old to the DB that was there and copied my Vcarve database and pasted into the Photo database area. Nothing???

The PhotoVCarve and VCarve tool databases are not compatible as PhotoVcarve is a much older program. You will have to put your old PhotoVCarve one back.

Refer back to the post I made in your other thread. It might be in one of those areas.

In the first area, the db got erased. I couldn't get to the second area. I would hope someone from Vectric could send me the file!

You could download the free trial and copy the database from that.
