AGS crashed out while I was trying to load a game for some play-testing.  Now the editor won't load at all and leaves the little loading screen up indefinitely.  I tried restarting my computer and I tried installing the latest version of AGS but it still won't load.  Do I delete the file referenced in this error code or is there something else I need to do?  I thought I would check in before I started really mucking around.  As always thanks for the help.

I think the simpliest fix would be to go to the path displayed in this message and delete "user.config" file.

That's what I thought I just didn't want to make things worse.  Thanks!

In case anybody is reading this now or in the future I deleted the file in question and when I loaded it it still said "root element missing" and so I changed game.agf.bak to GameIhopethisworks.agf and it would load.  The global script file was missing, though, so I copied it from a a back up I had from a week ago to see if I could save what I had worked on this week.  It seems to be working now.  I feel like I may be introducing some future bug if something else references something I changed in the global script this week but it seems to be okay for now.  Thanks again for the help.
