Hi Ken,

Would you please find the file %APPDATA%\BleachBit\BleachBit.ini? This is the configuration file. (If you need help finding it, let me know.) And would you please either attach it or email it to me at ahz001 at gmail dot com?

Second, please delete (or rename) the file, and then start BleachBit again.

Weird: the bleachbit.ini file you sent looks normal except one line
auto_hide = T

Normally all the booleans are spelled out like True instead of T. Either deleting the file (to reset it) or changing T to True should fix it.

For a future release I will make the system resistant to a crash in this area.

Fixed in commit 793e061 for next release

Please test the fix in BleachBit 1.9.2 beta

And please feel free to add a comment to this bug ticket whether the new release fixes the reported issue.
