Upgrade StorageUnable to use Zotero
I am unable to access Zotero on Windows, although it is still working fine on my MacBook. This is the msg that appears on the screen when I open the app:
The Zotero database “zotero.sqlite” appears to have become corrupted.
This generally occurs when the Zotero data directory is stored in a cloud storage folder or on a network drive. If you’ve moved your data directory to one of those places, you should move it back to the default location.
Zotero can attempt to restore from the last automatic backup from 18/03/2022 at 12:31:48.
For more information on repairing or restoring the database and preventing further corruption, see https://zotero.org/support/kb/corrupted_database
Can you please help me, what should I do?
I tried upgrading Zotero + reinstalling the app, but nothing worked.

dstillmanedited March 26, 2022See the page linked from that error message. We can't really say much more than that. Your database is corrupted and you'll need to try to repair it, restore from a backup, copy the zotero.sqlite file the other computer, or delete zotero.sqlite and pull down your data via sync. No real reason to try to repair it if you have a working copy elsewhere.
