Upgrade failed and cannot get older version now either

[mykeparker]

I tried the latest upgrade, and it failed with this error, tried putting the old version back on still errors now. Tried uninstalling and removing everything from the directory. No luck. PLEASE PLEASE help I love this program and been using it for ages!!

The error happens when I OK from the config app.

See 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 machine (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 machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

[sub]

There has been about three or four people that have had this error in the last eighteen months.

If you google for "System.InvalidOperationException: Process performance counter is disabled, so the requested operation cannot be performed." you'll find a fix. Its not a setting in GB-PVR. It system thing that can effect all .net based software.

tried allsorts, nevermind. Rebuild is in order. thanks anyway

[deathman20]

I just encountered this error myself And that was right after a fresh rebuild

Fixing .net doesn't work, but is there a way to fully uninstall .net from the computer to try reinstalling from scratch?
