Other than that. Kevin's advice to get back on track is the way to go.

The program just crashed after the message, and when I tryed to open again I only get a blank box (where was the message) and then the app stops working, that's why I was forced to get the new one.
I'll try to rename the ini file and see if it works. I looked for other versions yesterday at github but couldn't find it.
Actually that site isn't very visual friendly and I can't find anything there quickly. Looks like an FTP tree with lots of things I don't even know what are for and the fast links are for coding and sourcing ( and I'm just a writer, I just use the program to make my books ). I'll try to look there calmly later, since I need this ebook ready now I'm doing it the long way with MSWord and Calibre
