Omnis.cfg – Corrupted

I have a client who is having frequent issues with the Omnis.cfg file being corrupted. This is happening every few days.

I have had him send me a copy and it is a 6k file filled with Hex 0 and nothing else.

So, when they try to start Omnis they get the Error message that it cannot initialize the Omnis.cfg file and Omnis quits.

All they customer has to do at this point is delete the current Omnis.cfg and restart Omnis and it will create a new one and be fine. But obviously this is not a great solution for them.

Has anyone seen this before where someone gets this over and over? We see it every so often with various clients but not where it keeps happening. I wish that Omnis would just replace the file on its own if it cannot read the current one. It does not save anything that we care about in the Runtime anyway.

I would like to come up with a method to automatically deal with this.
