   Yeah, I'm curious what the corrupted/bad/truncated file.ini file looks/looked   
   like. The files are human readable, so you can use standard text tools like   
   diff if you wish. If it was caused by a bug in SCFG, it would be triggered by   
   making a change to any file options/areas and saving the changes.
