Description LinuxUserGD 2019-06-19 20:32:23 UTC

SUMMARY
When I open kdenlive (installed nightly builds) there is this error:
"The default profile of kdenlive is not set or invalid, press OK to set it to a correct value"
When I select any profile from the options given, nothing happens.
When I restart kdenlive the same dialogue appears.

1. reinstall kdenlive with scoop (or from website / uninstall.exe) after adding custom profile
2. delete %appdata% kdenlive folder
3. kdenlive won't start

OBSERVED RESULT
kdenlive doesn't open

EXPECTED RESULT
I can choose a profile and kdenlive runs.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows 10 64 bit

goto help -> reset configuration. 

If this is not working delete Kdenliverc, see here: https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Windows_Issues#Cannot_open_projects_made_with_previous_version.2C_timeline_snaps_back.2C_cannot_import_clip

I only deleted the kdenlive %appdata% folder. Deleting or renaming kdenliverc in %appdata%/local worked for me. Thanks!
