Hi,

When i try to copy or move a .dsb file and open it in another computer (with the same version of DB), i get errors like 'bad file format' and after that 'Error loading file' because the file may be corrupt or because of a version problem. Version is not the problem i am sure of it.

Is there some kind of protection for .dsb files? Can i export it somehow to open in another computer? Modelling of the building is finished, i just need to do the simulation in another computer. My computer is almost dead because of the long simulation time. i have to do it in a better computer.
I really need your help.
Thank you.

We have seen this problem before and it should be possible to resolve it by copying the file from the source computer to the destination computer using the source computers windows explorer. I think that is the right way round.

I found that .dsb file's path should be consist of english characters.

It was my case.
