It's likely hitting a lua error while loading the addon. Install BugGrabber and BugSack. These will show all lua errors and you can copy/paste it here so I can hopefully find the cause.

The problem is likely some unexpected data in the addon's SavedVariables.
Move this file somewhere else temporarily - it has all the configuration you've set up, so don't lose it.
World of Warcraft\_retail_\WTF\Account\<AccountName>\SavedVariables\CraftScan.lua
After moving it, try logging in and CraftScan will probably come up again in its default new install state. If you can easily re-create your config, you can just start fresh from there. If you copy the Lua error report here, I can probably point you to what to look for in CraftScan.lua to remove it and get your config back.
I deleted it and reinstalled it after getting the buggrabber and bugsack. This is the errors i got:
3x CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua:633: invalid option in format' [string "=[C]"]: in function
format'
[string "@CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua"]:633: in function <CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua:521>
[string "@CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua"]:726: in function <CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua:679>
[string "@CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua"]:813: in function <CraftScan/Utils/Utils.lua:811>
Locals: (temporary) = "I can craft {item}. Max quality 100%. Send it on over." (temporary) = "{item}"
Replace that 100% with 100%% in CraftScan.lua and give it a try. The upgrade task that added placeholders instead of %s in the messages runs a string.format on the string and % is a special character to string.format. %% is the escape to be interpreted as a % instead of a formatter.
I think a check was added to prevent this from being input, but will double check.
I tried changing it in CraftScan.lua but that didnt work. Luckily I figured out I could delete saved variables or whatever in curseforge and restore it to base settings and that fixed it! Thank you for your time and attention!
Craftscan was working great and I was making lots of money. One day it just stopped working. I cant figure out how to bring it back up. Ive tried reloading. deleting. Reinstalling. It says its a addon i have but it does not appear in game or in my crafting menu anymore. Please help.
