"unable to use or edit track analysis" error

This error occurs if you use a different user name on your new computer, and you restored the data without using Backup/Restore Library function.


The error occurs because the location of Analysis files stored in rekordbox database and a setting file is old user's directory.
There are several ways to resolve this issue.

Option 1. Use same user name on your new computer.

Option 2. Use Backup and Restore Library function.
1. Backup rekordbox Library on your old computer. (File->Library->Backup Library)
   Save backup data in the external drive.
2. Connect the external drive to your new computer.
3. Restore rekordbox Library on your new computer. (File->Library->Restore Library)
   Select the backed up data saved at step 1.
