Here is my report on the repair of the database (the procedures I took are described above).

The total time to copy the items from the old, damaged and irreparable (at least what could be salvaged by UR's repair utility) database was 8 hours 58 minutes. I understand that keywording, etc. takes place in the background, but this is ridiculous. Adding insult to injury were two additional problems. First, UR could not be used during this period. The second problem was the very frequent, but erratic pop-up (switch to or retry) that needed constant attention, lest the copying process would not proceed further. I could dismiss this by either clicking switch to or retry.

I like what UR is supposed to be able to do, but I have just about had enough. The reality is that when pushed beyond what I think most users use it for, but still very far below its stated limitations, UR simply falls flat on its face.
