Hello,

AmiBroker does not erase or destroy anything. If you use two instances 
on one database, each instance can write
to it and the one that wrote the contents LAST applies. As with text 
editor if you open with Notepad
two times the same file and make edits in both instances then save in 
both then the one that
wrote changes as LAST overwrites any previous changes.
If you get corruption you should first REMOVE or TURN OFF ANTIVIRUS on 
databases
because antiviruses should never be used on data files and are known to 
badly affect system performance.

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
