Does your current user account have write permissions to the data directory?
2/ i have no idea what it is !
zotero.sqlite
zotero.sqlite.1.bak
zotero.sqlite.bak
zotero.sqlite-journal
and yes i do have write access to all 4 files.
what should i do now?
ps: thank you for your patience.
This should be simple: check the Advanced → Files and Folders pane of the Zotero preferences and see if it says it's using the default location.
In any case, you'll need to figure out why Zotero can't write to the file. This isn't a problem in Zotero itself.
after that zotero stoped responding no matter how much i uninstalled Zotero, every time the app goes back to this files but can't get access to the data.
i got it back now.
thank you for your help
