Upgrading to 2022.08.26.0157 wants to setup new or restore DVR

Channels DVR Server Troubleshooting
#1

Upgraded to 2022.08.26.0157 this morning and how when I go to the DVR it doesn't detect the existing configuration and wants to either setup a new DVR or restore DVR.

If I try to restore the DVR by pointing at my backup from last night, it errors: "open recorder.db: The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open."

I'm not sure how to rollback or upgrade to a newer release since I can't get into the settings of the existing DVR.

Ideas?

Go to Task Manager, find channels-dvr.exe and quit it. Then search Start Menu > Channels DVR and it should come up properly.

Nice! Somehow managed to have two instances of the process in there. Quit them both and it did indeed come back. Thanks for the quick response!
