    I am using TMGv9.05 with Windows 10/64 and they have been working fine ever since I upgraded from Win7 about 3-4 years ago.

    However, in recent weeks, TMG has been locking up, freezing to the point I can only use Task Mgr to close TMG & re-open, then it works ok for a while.  In the past two hours, it has frozen 4 times.  After it freezes & reboots, I always run Optimize & VFI.   

     There does not seem to be any certain action that causes the freeze.  It has locked when I was adding data, merging people, changing from one project to another, working in Master Place List, merging Sources in Master Source List, just a variety of tasks.  Otherwise, TMG works well.

    Would it help if I re-installed TMG?  
    Any other suggestions?

    I was trying to move 50 people from dataset #1 to dataset #2 when this error message appeared:  Variable 'RULESET' is not found.  1248 MOVEPERSON2

    I had to choose Abort to close the error.  The process was 92% complete, but TMG had locked and I had to ctl-alt-del to close TMG.

    It appears that all 50 people were "copied" to dataset 2, but they were also still in dataset #1.    My purpose was to delete the 50 people from dataset#1.  

    I have done this move successfully many times, but not this time.
    What caused this error and how can it be avoided?

    Now, when I try to open this project, even though NO TMG project is open, I get this message:   "This project is in use elsewhere.  Please select another project."

    I have some questions about the TMG file maintence routines

    1- What is the most effective sequence to run File > Maintenance: Reindex, Optimize, UFI, etc?

    2- Is it useful to re-run any of these modules a second time?

    3- When you have more than one data set in a project and run the Maintence routines, does it re-index, optimize, etc all the data sets in the project? or only those data sets that are enabled?

    Thanks, Jim
