Best thing to do in this situation is delete your TopoFusion.ini file, to get rid of the erroneous path.

delete your settings file, it probably has a bad path.

To reset back to default settings, delete (or rename) the file TopoFusion.ini.  It should be here:

C:\Documents and Settings\*Your USER NAME*\Local Settings\Application Data\TopoFusion\TopoFusion.ini

I am not sure how a bad path is getting in there, but it seems it happened to Bob Bailey and to you as well.  Maybe send me your TopoFusion.ini file before you delete it and I can take a look.

Renamed file then deleted file still the same thing. I'm wondering if maybe CCleaner window washer could corrupt the path

I've since discovered that TF is not tolerant of the "My TopoFusion Files" directory going
away.  I've changed it so future versions won't give that error, and will instead create that directory.

If you aren't up and running (I believe per email you are), let me know.  It'll be an easy fix (just creating the directory).
