I wouldn't delete the device unless it's invalid somehow or shouldn't exist.

Better to just delete the reference in the TaskList table (if you can find it).

It’s valid but something that could be rebuilt. If I can get HBData to load and HB to launch that would be a big step. Didnt get far into the DB last night but will look at the TaskList table.

i deleted 100+ records in TaskList for the devid 516 prop 73. then got a similar message for 324/73. (Strangely, I was unable to make changes to HBData on the Win11 box, was told it was read-only, even after I changed all its security properties to full control. but I made the changes on the old win10 box then copied it over.)
Thinking that might be IR related, I migrated, with some difficulty, the USBUIRT device and its drivers to the new Win11 box. Same result. But now I'm thinking that there is a more fundamental problem with HBData. I shouldn't have to be deleting 100s of records from it.
