Issue
When you launch PlanSwift you see an error.
Discussion
There are two main PlanSwift errors that can cause PlanSwift not to open:
Any time you try to open PlanSwift and you get an error saying something along the lines of:
Error: Could not load PlanSwift/Settings/Data.xml
That generally means there was a problem with PlanSwift not being closed properly and your settings file got corrupted.
Resolution
The fix is to Re-install PlanSwift.
Error: Job...Data.xml
If you receive an error that looks like this:
This means that data in a job became corrupted.
Resolution
If this happens, the easiest thing to do is remove the job specified in the error. You can follow the path given in the error message in Windows Explorer.
Once you find the file, cut out the folder the error is coming from. For example, you would go back one folder and cut out the Palm Beach Equine Folder.
Paste the folder on the desktop and then reload PlanSwift. This should remove the error.
- If the error is the main data file in the job (you can tell since the address has only the job name), see Related Articles.
- If it is in a Takeoff or Page folder, then you will just need to cut out the folder. Unfortunately, there is not a way to bring back this data.
