I'm having issues converting .mtw files using MultiTerm Convert 2021 and 2024 on my Mac (running Parallels with Windows 11). Despite trying to change the file location and ensuring the file isn’t “read-only,” error messages persist (see attached files). I’d appreciate any guidance on resolving these errors. Thank you!
Given the messages you have shown can you provide the full path to the database? It looks pretty clear that it's having problems working with the file because it's been engaged in some other process. So perhaps it's on a folder associated with OneDrive for example and getting blocked due to synchronisation processes, or maybe you have it on a MAC path using a UNC address?

The full path is: Z:\Desktop\Conversion\File.mtw, where "Z" is "Home on Mac".
It might be worth switching to the UNC equivalent (\\Mac\Home\Desktop\Conversion\File.mtw) or even better put the file into a windows location instead and access it from there.

I tried to put the file into a windows location (C:\Users\Mor\Desktop\Desktop\Conversion\File.mtw), but these error messages still persist (see attached files).
