can't open MT now

[rocarr]

I can't get into MT now. The first error box says:

An error occurred while opening the NEWS data file.

System.IO.IOException: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).

at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

at System.IO.File.InternalCopy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite, Boolean checkHost)

at System.IO.File.Copy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName)

at MT.StoredData.SNews.OpenMMF(String filename) in C:\MedvedTrader\StoredData\SNews.cs:line 548

at MT.App.OpenSNEWS() in C:\MedvedTrader\MT\App.cs:line 2568

And then whether yes or no is selected I get

Data error (cyclic redundancy check).

Please contact Medved Trader technical support and provide the error details

basically, you have corruption on your hard drive, most likely caused if your system crashed, You need to run Check Disk.  Here is a good reference

http://www.wikihow.com/Fix-a-Cyclic-Redundancy-Check-Error

 

You can also try deleting 

SNEWS.BIN

and

SNEWS.BIN.BAK (both of them, not just 1)

 

They would be located in 

C:\Users\<your windows login name>\AppData\Local\2GK\Medved Trader

Deleting SNEWS.BIN fixed it.

I couldn't find SNEWS.BIN.BAK but when I looked again after MT opened it was there.

 

Thanks.
