I think MO2 is fucking something up. This is what it should do when it detects no config file. For some reason, it's detecting something to open and it's blank.

I guess we could have a try to catch it.

Don't reopen issues with old data. Have them create a new one and cross reference. This build is no longer in use so just clutters up the response.
