Comment:

 Seems it's a problem with access to nnn.dbf file, while it's already open
 by Qgis. As Qgis can't delete fields by the OGR Driver, Tablemanager has
 to modify it on his own.

 Unfortunately I have no idea how to do it easily in operating systems not
 supporting multiple access to file (and I have no plans to invest more
 time into this plugin, as it's been designed as a temporary solution). I
 disabled this button on windows. I know it's not a real solution, so any
 help is wellcome.

 I'm closing this ticket as invalid, as this trac is suitable for core
 plugins only. A trac for external plugins is temporarily hosted by
 Faunalia: https://trac.faunalia.it/qgis_plugins/
 and fopefully after April's hackfe...eeting will be settled here:
