I'm having problems opening Giants editor 4.1.7. I have used it ever since it came out without a problem. A couple of days ago I started getting this error.

"Can't load xml config files: C:/Users/Pat/AppData/Local/GIANTS.Editor 4.1.7/editor.xml"

I'm running windows 7 64.

Hi Jon,

Does the file "C:/Users/Pat/AppData/Local/GIANTS.Editor 4.1.7/editor.xml" exists on your hard-drive?

Cheers,
Chris

!!!! I Fixed it !!!!

Okay guys I figured it out so I thought I would post the solution in case someone else has the same issue. I still don't know what caused it.

To fix it in windows 7 you have to go to

control panel
folder options
view
Hidden files and folders
"show hidden files, folders, and drives"
and uncheck
Hide protected operating system files (recommended)

Then you can see your AppData folder which is usually hidden

Follow the error path

C:/users/NAME/appdata/local

Delete the folder "giants editor 4.1.7"

Then do a clean install of giants 4.1.7
