Database

Bobi · February 15, 2012

Hello, I installed on my computer zotero recently, I could create my basic bibliographic reference. I share my computer with a friend who has created his account zotero but wanting to put their username and password in sync preferences can be found on my database.
By uninstalling and reinstalling zotero every time we fall back on my database. What would it be necessary to make so that in every installation an empty database appears?
Thank you for your help,

If you share a computer, you should either install another firefox profile: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles - then install zotero, etc.
or create two zotero data directories: http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data#zotero_library_data - then toggle library location each time.

The first solution is more secure, I think.

Yes - it's very much recommended to either work with separate system accounts or with separate Firefox profiles.
