From http://www.elwynor.com/elwynorwiki/disp ... roupServer

Open regedt32 and change the following values:

Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Galacticomm, Worldgroup Server, [CurrentVersion]

Change useConsoleWindow and set the value to 1

Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Btrieve Technologies, Microkernel Workstation Engine, Version 6.15, Settings

Change Max Files to 1000 (hex, it's 4096 decimal), and change Max Handles to 1000 (hex, it's again 4096 decimal). Ensure Max Locks is ff (255)
