Current Behavior

Hi,
Netalertx on docker here,

Built on 2025-10-05 Installed version v25.10.1 Database-Path /app/db/app.db Database-Size 22,31 MB (wal: 8,66 MB)

I have a lot of "ghost" devices in my list, so i want to delete them, but each time i click on the save icon in a field i got the "ERROR - DB might be locked - Check F12 Dev tools -> Console or try later."

Tested "Delete all event older from 30 days" -> not error

Here is the debug view :

NB : optional question, can i manually edit the database, and how ? Thanks !

Expected Behavior
