launchpad on the frits

[edjarkane]

something happened when i tried launching launchpad after nortan did a regular scan. it deleted some file and causes a little box to pop up saying: system.nullreferenceExceptoin: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at FreelancerLauncher.DiscoveryLaunchpadDlg.loadAccountStatus(Boolean suppressError) when i press ok it launches launchpad but wont show the accounts id or keycodes and when i attempt to change an account another box shows up saying:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. if you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. if you click quit the application will close immediately

object reference not set to an instance of an object.
e the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

i have restarted and uninstall and reinstall and ran as administrater and the problem is there. if some one can help please do.

Reinstall framework. Found this fixed it for me. 4.3 I think is the latest version.

Hope this helps.
