Error and crash when launching HEM2 (screenshot)

I am running Windows 10 and am current on updates. HEM2 was working until I installed PT4. I have since removed PT4, as well as removed HEM2 and postgresql and reinstalled HEM2/postgresql and am getting the same error.

Thank you.

Please see this section of the Windows FAQ and reset your Winsock Adapter - Hold'Em Manager 2 FAQs - Poker Software :: How to repair Windows files (http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/3253/How+to+repair+Windows+files#winsock)

If you continue to have problems this is typically caused by a corrupted file. This can be solved by deleting these files:

ScannerLog.txt
holdemmanager.config
(and any .bak or .corrupt versions of those files you see)

in

Windows 7 log file location: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Holdem Manager\
Window XP log path location: C:\Documents and Settings\User_name\Application Data\HoldemManager

If you cannot see the appData folder then see this tutorial explaining how to show system and hidden files:
Hold'Em Manager 2 FAQs - Poker Software :: How are Hidden Files Viewed in Windows? (http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/832/How+are+Hidden+Files+Viewed+in+Windows%3F+)

You should also follow these steps, as the log indicates that HM2 is having trouble accessing and updating files in the above folder. Please see this FAQ to alleviate any security bottlenecks - Hold'Em Manager 2 FAQs - Poker Software :: Set Correct Permissions on files and folders HM2 use (http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/2561/Set+Correct+Permissions+on+files+and+folders+HM2+u se)

Once you delete the file, restart HM2 and if the problem persists follow these instructions for sending us a new log file directly after the crash and before you restart HM2 - Hold'Em Manager 2 FAQs - Poker Software :: How Do I Send a Log File to Holdem Manager Support? (http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/1921/How+Do+I+Send+a+Log+File+to+Holdem+Manager+Support %3F). There might be new information in that log file that helps us to narrow down the issue.
