I know this is probably a question for the Intel XDK forums but I thought I would ask here just in case someone has a quick answer and because I'm too lazy to register for their message boards if I don't have to .
When I tried to manually update my Intel XDK software (pushed the little update button inside the software), then relaunched it get an error and I can't use it anymore. I still get the error even after uninstalling and re-installing and it forces me to quit. Here's the error message:

Has anyone had an issue with this or know a solution?
