I have the exact same problem as prozedotman, but I'm a bit hesitant to do what you've suggested because I've looked in the folder you've suggested deleting but there seem to be lots of important files in there, e.g. all the files in the "settings" folder. Are you sure that deleting the folder you've mentioned won't just permanently damage my game?
