Help, Editor crashing after many years of bliss w/ my Ultra.

Guys, for some reason Editor was working fine, even today until an hr ago. It doesn't open up, just an instant "crash box" opens. I made no changes to my laptop w/ Vista / Windows. I've re-started my puter, Ultra and unplugged things - to no avail. Thoughts? Idea's? thank you!

Anyone take off the front stands/legs of the MFC for better foot tilt?

So as not to have to lift my foot much, I've thought about removing the front legs (maybe all of them!) so the switches are a bit lower - - or at a better angle. (I'll use my MFC on the floor, not in a pedal case) Anyone tried this yet??
