The typoed Version, sorry.

Well thanks to the typo I can tell that this is occuring when the program tries to create a backup directory. It will try to create a Dirctory called "Data_backup" in the same directory as the data directory. If it is happening on startup it would be trying to do this to the Last mod you viewed. Is there any reason a program would not be able to create a directory on you machine?

Actaully now that I think about it I think someone else had some problems because they had their mods in a directory that was differenct from the usual ...Space Empires 4\ModName\data.

Well, not exactly. It sticks the new components at the end of the file. I don't know if it always does this though, since I was just fooling around and recording the errors as I found them.

Yea definatly the order new things go into the Treeview is not necessarily the same as in the data files. I'll have to test it a bit but I think things get saved right in the text file.
