Description

ever since I think 3.0.5.1 I get this error dialog box:

error loading xml file
Could not load "C:\Documents and Settings\Jim\Application Data\FileZilla\filezilla.xml", make sure the file is valid.
For this session, default settings will be used and any changes to the settings are not persistent.

the default settings as referred to are the same as what are in my xml file it looks like.

when I examined the xml file, it now contains 6k worth of spaces instead of 6k worth of xml.

essentially, something in filezilla trashed my xml file. possibly it was the upgrade process to 3.0.5.1?

This usually happens if you forcefully shut down your computer (e.g. pulling plug, reset button) before all data has been written to disk.

FileZilla doesn't write into filezilla.xml directly, it writes into filezilla.xml~ and renames it once it has succeeded.
