WRONG, I've reinstalled 3.2.1 (uninstalled 3.2.1 -> installed 3.2.1)
could not open ANYTHING.

Installed 3.0.0.9, did the above procedure. At first I thought it worked
however after I did a Save As and reopened the file, back to square one :'(

Something happened at least back to 3.0.0.9

How far back do I need to go to fix this
