Integrate keeps crashing due to an Xml error, even after fresh install

Problem

I had a PC crash during my work with DATPROF Integrate.

When starting Integrate now it crashes before opening any project.

I even did a reinstall but nothing helped.

I found two examples of errors .

CODE

Solution

When starting Datprof integrate two XML files are read:

<USER>\AppData\Local\Datprof\Integrate\layout.config.
This file contains the info about the positioning of the Integrate objects.
<USER>\AppData\Local\Datprof\Integrate\user.config.
This files contains the info about the recent used projects.

During a crash these files might become corrupt causing Integrate to fail during startup.

Remove theses files, they will be created again,
