Snap.net unhandled exception. Unable to start the app.

Recently, I am getting these errors when I am trying to start snap.net. A uninstall and reinstall doesn't help. It happened over night, the only change in the System might be some windows updates. Maybe the logs are helpful below:

Hi, thanks for the logs - very helpful! This looks like your config file got corrupted, I've seen that before unfortunately. Could you paste here the contents of the user.config file here as well please? You'll find it in C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\SnapDotNet\Snap.Net.Exe_Url_<CatJumpedOnSomeonesKeyboard>\0.26.0.3.

My guess is that file will either be incomplete, or have gibberish in it (got corrupted mid-write somehow). Renaming/deleting this file will fix the crash for you. But please still paste its contents here as well, I'd like to try and get to the bottom of this issue.

Thanks!

Indeed it seems like the file was corrupted. It has a lot of NUL Values in them.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
