Opening too many projects

I accidentally opened too many projects on the serever, and I get an error message that the system is out of memory. How do I escape this locked mode I am in?

Easy. Again, with Rubix, our new project controls utility, this is a one click fix. It's a matter of resetting your user preferences in P6.

For more information about Rubix or a free trial, search Rubix.

If you'd like to fix it manually, steps are below. You need direct access to the database to fix it. 

After logging in to the database's backend (method may vary depending on whether it's SQL Server or Oracle or SQLITE), execute the below query. 

update userdata set user_data = null where topic_name = ‘pm_settings’ and user_id in (select user_id from users where user_name = '<your user name>')

Note, you'll have to close P6 before implementing this fix. Once you execute this query, you can log back in.
