Hi Peter, Thanks for the info. I did what you suggested deleting MNEMOSYNE_LOCK did not work but removing "config" worked. This is a work computer and I have a network drive mapped to this machine. Mnemosyne was using the ".menmosyne" directory in that mapped folder instead of C:/users/murat/.mnemosyne folder, so it was having conflict with the files created by the old installation.
