==Disk Corruption==
One of the main reasons for Database corruption in Enabler is the underlying Hard Disk and/or Windows File System becoming corrupt. This can happen for numerous reasons including physical hardware failure or virus activity.
Often, problems can be resolved by running a Check Disk command over the drive that Enabler is installed on as follows:
Open a command prompt
Click Start → Click Run → type CMD → Click OK
At the command prompt, type the following:
C:\> CHKDSK X: /F
(Where X is the drive letter that you would like to scan, most commonly C:)
If there are files in use that cannot be scanned, such as core Windows system files, you will be prompted to run the Check Disk at the next reboot. Answer Y to this.
When the machine is rebooted, the Check Disk will scan for and repair any hardware or file system issues.
