Several times a day I get the popup “Grindstone Failed to Save Your Data”.

What can I do to prevent these?

In the logfile there is this message:

> – IOException: The process cannot access the file ‘C:\Users\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\OneDrive - \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\Documents\My Grindstone Database.gsjdb’ because it is being used by another process.

Update:

At first I thought writing in the OneDrive folder was the problem.

So I moved the file `My Grindstone Database.gsjdb` to my desktop…

That did not help.

Reinstalling Grindstone either.
