      Hello. I use a program to encrypt files. When I decrypt files the program creates a new disk with the decrypted data.

      I plugged in this drive, specify a unique name in the Tabbles. I added files, add the tags with Tabbles and disconnected drive.

      Сonnect disk again – Tabbles does not detect drive.

      When i try to open a file from Tabbles tag – i got the message “please connect the disk labeled …”.

      If i connect this drive to another letter (F instead E, for example) – Tabbles detect it as new drive and ask for unique name.

      Questions:
      1) How to force Tabbles to see files on the disk, which was added before the first disconnection?
      2) How to move already tagged files with “Database update wizard”? I try to change disk letter in Tabbles (after connection my disk to another letter), but Tabbles requires that both drives are connected.

      I opened the database and replace the old disk ID to the new ID in all tables.
      Accessed files, now I can move them.

      Why this identifier is present across multiple tables?
      It looks like a very bad database design.

      Hi there,

      we never made any test with encrypted disk. In our next release (Tabbles 4) we won’t use the DiskID anymoer, we’ll release a beta later today.

      What will replace the “DiskID” mechanism – just the full path? — which of course we can easily globally replace drive letters, here and there, where necessary?

      Yes, the full path.
      If you’re in sharing group, in V4, Tabbles saves the path for every machine where the file is tagged.
