This was working before I restarted my machine, and on bootup I get a popup box that says "failed to start check SABnzbd.exe.txt for more details.

Here is the error message.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "SABnzbd.py", line 1865, in <module>
File "SABnzbd.py", line 1075, in main

I am currently using 1.0.1 on a Windows 10.

Any hint in the right direction would be nice. Thanks!
