Troubleshooting corrupted database

In some instances, a corrupted prettyGoodDatabase.sqlite3 file prevents the app from opening even though it had previously opened. In these cases, deleting the sqlite3 file and reopening the app may restore functionality and help with debugging. This is where you should expect to find the file:

In development mode, look for: <path to pretty-good files>\release\app\sql\prettyGoodDatabase.sqlite3.

In production:

• linux: /home/<username>/.config/pretty-good/prettyGooddatabase.sqlite3
• mac: /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Electron/prettyGoodDatabase.sqlite3
• Windows: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\pretty-good\prettyGoodDatabase.sqlite3
