That should probably be more effective than the first one listed above 
as it's targeted to the Mozilla SQLITE files.

Another tack, the Warpin issue. After She have renamed & copied the 
databse to another location should She do a Warpin -deinstall, and if 
that won't work, just delete the files in the Warpin base dir and 
reinstall Warpin-1-0-19.exe which is dated 2020-05-13. Is She can just 
delete the files (not the database) in g:\os2ut\warpin and then execute 
the above file after moving it to g:\os2ut\warpin. In this way, no 
statements in config.sys have to be altered, and after a succesful 
install. place the database with it's correct name in the Warpin dir and 
then trying upgrading Her PMViewPro (which is installed by Warpin). If 
that works, then it's time to install PM Backup using Warpin and trying 
to 'hot up" WSeB by installing the latest AHCI, APCI, FAT32 and the SMP 
code (have the CD with the Convenient Pack 2 at hand here. Would be good 
to continue using WSeB on the new box, but also use eCs 2.1 and ArcaOS - 
She believes in having more than one flavour of OS2 / eCs / ArcaOS so as 
to be able to use the various OS'es strenght - eCs 2.1 She must have to 
access SVTPlay (SVT is public service) but requires the latest ODIN and 
the Flash11 plugin to see TV programs. As Flash11 is only licensed for 
eCs, it won't work from WSeB or ArcaOS, only the various eCs versions. 
Btw the Warpin version info is hideous - 1-0-19 is later than 1-0-22, so 
why can't these who delevop Warpin use a more consistent version system 
so newer versions have higher version info than earler versions? One 
could get preggers for this stupid version info :-=
