Errors when launching Launchbox and Bigbox after updating to 6.3b2

Issue #980 resolved
Jeremy Gilbert created an issue

Just updated to 6.3 beta 2, now I get errors when launching Launchbox or Bigbox. Screenshots of errors attached; the entire stacktrace in the Bigbox error is also pasted below. I have tried both Launchbox and Bigbox multiple times, and they throw their respective errors each time.

Bigbox stacktrace:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at () at LaunchBox.Program.RenameImageFoldersFor63() at BigBox.ViewModels.MainViewModel..ctor() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.RuntimeTypeHandle.CreateInstance(RuntimeType type, Boolean publicOnly, Boolean noCheck, Boolean& canBeCached, RuntimeMethodHandleInternal& ctor, Boolean& bNeedSecurityCheck) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceSlow(Boolean publicOnly, Boolean skipCheckThis, Boolean fillCache, StackCrawlMark& stackMark) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, Boolean nonPublic) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type) at Caliburn.Micro.BootstrapperBase.DisplayRootViewFor(Type viewModelType, IDictionary`2 settings) at (Bootstrapper , Object , StartupEventArgs ) at BigBox.Bootstrapper.OnStartup(Object sender, StartupEventArgs e) at System.Windows.Application.OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e) at System.Windows.Application.<.ctor>b__1_0(Object unused) at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.InternalRealCall(Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs) at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.TryCatchWhen(Object source, Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs, Delegate catchHandler)

    Also, to clarify, I am using Windows 10 x64, logged in as a user in the Administrators group (on a home network); tried running Launchbox as Administrator but get the same error.

    Thanks very much Jeremy, I'd like to get this fixed ASAP. Can you email me your LaunchBox.xml file to jasondavidcarr@gmail.com? Thanks!

    Thanks Jeremy, just put out a new beta that should hopefully fix this issue. Let me know if not, thanks! :)
