Error trying to open sublime text after changing user pref

#1

Hi

I tried to change use preferences in sublime text by editing the preferences file.
ever since the program doesn’t open
I tried to re-install and it still doesn’t work.

I get this error from windows when trying to open the program:
Error trying to parse settings: Expected value in c:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text2|Packages\User\Preferences.sublime-settings:4-2

I checked for the folders and saw that such a folder doesn’t exist on my computer.

anyone has an idea?

thx

Looks like your (windows) username is missing in the path, it should look something like:

c:\Users**assaf**AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text2|Packages\User\Preferences.sublime-settings

It’s seems like you put something in the file that Sublime text does not understand.
Most common thing to forget is the komma at the end of the line.

Can you post what you changed (once you found the file that is :wink: )
