Crash Killed Codeblocks

I was using Codeblocks just fine until my battery suddenly gave out and when I restarted, I got an exception every time I try to open codeblocks:

The actions I have taken are to delete all associated files, and reinstall codeblocks twice, and restarting the computer a few times.

See attached pdf for the exception.

I would guess that the file in the message was damaged.
Look in the same folder for a backup copy or renamed the current file and when CB is started it will create a default version of the file.

The error seems close to the one that was shown when the file was empty.

I can't find any of those folders at all, even when I reinstall

It is a hidden folder.
You can just open it using explorer.exe or other method.
