Sorry if this has been gone over before but I did a quick search and didn't find anything.

I'm exporting my database from my laptop in order to move the hands to my new computer... I followed the instructions on the FAQ and saw that it "could take a long time", but it's now been just over 5 hours and as far as I can tell nothing has happened. There are no new files in the exported hands folder, but the Database Control Panel has been greyed out and "not responding" the entire time.

Looking at the computer usage statistics the database isn't using much at all in terms of resources so I don't mind if this is normal, but if it's not I'd like to shut it down so I can start over and get the hands moved...

My database is somewhere around 1mm hands fwiw, not sure if that's considered huge or not.

Thanks.

1 Million Hands shouldnt take anywhere near that long, i presume it probably just crashed. Its not ideal but you dont really have any options so try shutting down the process and rebooting and try again
