Hi!
I used Code::Blocks on my computer(OS: Windows XP  SP2) for several weeks but today when I tried to start it, it showed me this strange error message.
I uninstalled  and reinstalled it and when I try to lauch Code::Blocks is show me again this textbox.

Can someone please tell me what to do(except reinstalling my OS).

Remove (or better rename) the default.conf mentioned in the error message.
It seems to be broken. If you have a default.conf.cbTemp in the same folder, you can try to rename it by removing the .cbTemp (after renaming the original file).
If it exists it can work or not, if it does not exist or is corrupted remove any default.conf (it will be created from scratch).
You have to setup C::B again after deleting it.

The funny thing is that the paths metioned in the Textbox don't exist in my computer...
I only have Codeblocks installed in C:\CodeBlocks.
Here's a pic(as you can see there's no src folder and no application data folder):

Application Data might be hidden.
