Hi! I could imagine that Clipper relies on file locking a lot (SHARE driver) and it may need a suitable version of that. Working with diskimage drives exclusive to DOS may work better OR worse than working with drives which are emulated out of host operating system directories here, depending on which emulator you use (not just QEMU, try DOSEMU or DOSBOX for example). You can also try the DOS port of Harbour / XHarbour DB, which is free and open:
