Unable to import any games all of a sudden

Hello.

I have successfully setup Launchbox with a bunch of platforms already, but ever since this morning, it just won't import any roms anymore, and just crashes without any error message at the end of the import process (usual Windows message "Launchbox stopped working")

I looked for logs but couldn't find any.

I'm running Launchbox 8.0, my Windows 7 machine is up to date with the latest Windows Updates (I checked again this morning)

Here's what I noted so far:

I tried to restore a backup of the platform.xml and re-imported the missing platforms and it worked, up to a point where it wouldn't any more and crashed again
I don't think I've hit any hard limits : I have currently 33 platforms
Sometimes, clicking on the "Import roms" menu item causes Launchbox to immediately crash without even an error message
No matter which platform I try to import roms for, it crashes at the end of the import process (tried it with ScummVM and Commodore Amiga for example, but others I didn't add previously cause a crash as well)
These romsets/platforms have been imported before : I had to delete them because I updated their romsets earlier this week-end.
When restarting Launchbox, the platform I tried to import isn't listed. It doesn't exist in the Data/Platforms directory as a XML file either.
There's 150Gb left on the drive where Launchbox is

To me it sounds like there's some kind of corruption somewhere in my data files, as Launchbox worked very fine with those sets earlier.

I'm attaching my platforms.xml file, as I don't see what other file I could add since there are no logs anywhere (this is something I'd really like LAunchbox to do. Logging os we could try to debug our issues ourselves)

Is there anything else I can help with regarding this bug ?
