Seems to be an Issue with data in the user.config file.  Attached is the file as
posted by Raptor_Jesus (OCN).

This has happened to me too.  I'm a folder at Maximum PC.  I tried the solution 
in 
the OCN thread by Raptor_Jesus, but that did not work for me.

provided by the Issue starter, DBPythonMaster.

Ah... that's the ticket!  I had already tried deleting registry entries and 
deleting 
all of AppData\Roaming\HFM.  Howver, I was not aware of the Harlem357 folder in 
AppData\Local.  Once I deleted the subfolders in there with previous config 
files, 
it works perfectly.  Please delete/ignore my issue 187, it is deprecated by 
this 
thread.

Marked Fixed for Revision 165.

Can't recover from this as nicely as I'd like.  I am catching the exception and
removing the corrupted file and closing the application.  The user will have to
restart HFM themselves.

I have just encountered this as well.  Was working fine for a very long time.  
The program was in my start up folder and I was overclocking my RAM.  At one 
point I kept getting crashes at boot up right after logging into Windows 
(basically when the services and programs were being loaded).  Finally put it 
back to my known stable settings and then this happened.

The original was a zip download.  I thought I only had that one folder to 
delete but that did not work after a new extract.  Then someone mentioned the 
HFM file in appdata and so I deleted the extracted files and that folder but 
that did not work either.

I then downloaded the installer one instead, tried it, doesn't work so I used 
the uninstall via control panel and then re-installed.  That didn't work.

Then I came across this issue thread and someone mentioned the harlam357 file.  
Uninstalled program, deleted both the HFM and harlam357 folders in the appdata 
folder and reinstalled.  That got it to work again.
