Viewed user.config file listed in exception - it was full of null characters. I
think we should detect corrupted config and wipe it out.

I had an 0.1.2 and an 0.1.5 config after running the install (when I got the
error).
I deleted the 0.1.5 folder after verifying that the config file was full of
null
characters. After that, I was able to run the program and a new 0.1.6 folder
was
created with readable settings.

Thanks for finding and reporting this. Good thing we're still just a beta ;-).

Is this still an issue?

Yes. I have encountered this issue (corrupted user.config) on two different
installations of 0.1.7 Beta 1 (one on Vista Ultimate x64 and one on Vista
Enteprise
x86). Note that I have not had any version other than 0.1.7 Beta 1 installed on
either machine.

Update to my last comment (comment 5): After additional forensics, I am
confident
in stating that my user.config became corrupted after an OS crash. On the x64
box,
the crash was an unexpected shutdown and on the x86 box it was a BSOD.

This is for an old version, not seeing it anymore

Was able to reproduce. Here's some code to detect and remove a corrupted
user.config: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/CorruptUserConfig.aspx

I've checked in the fix - will test once it's released in the ClickOnce version
