Had the same problem, also lost a heap of pids out of loggs that were already saved prior to update. I reinstalled the program and was fixed.

It looks like it's something in the "online update" process. I also had this, after doing an auto update. After manually downloading and installing over the top, all was fine. I did not need to un-install the previous version.

I think Paul disabled the auto update as it wasn't updating correctly, as you guys found, downloading the install exe's off the website fixes the problem.

I actually had the same problem with a manual update. The fix ended up being a re-run of the update install but selecting the "return to factory defaults" for install locations before committing. There must be a definition file misplaced or something otherwise.
