It tried to write over b4a.xml file
and can't then crashes then b4a.xml is
gone which makes b4a not work now
See in B4a.Xml directory, you will find B4aTemp..... file.
Rename it in B4a.xml.
But this file was in use while you were updating it.
I have no problem since weeks!=..

Hehe, I'm making a VB.Net version to change the colors. At this moment, I'm only copying the resulting styles part to the clipboard instead of writing the B4A.xml file. I'm almost finished with the app, will post it somewhere this weekend probably .

On Vista / Windows 7 programs cannot write to Program Files folders. Trying to write to these folders will either fail or create a file in a virtual folder which will later cause all kinds of issues.

The solution is to give the user the text and let him paste it in the file.

Also note that B4A.xml file can change between different versions.
