Sourcetree won't start anymore

GreWull October 16, 2017

Suddenly Sourcetree doesn't work anymore. I can't open it and when I try to re-install it just show me a small blue logo with "sourcetree" and then nothing else.

 

I'm on windows 10

I tried to delete all the folder in Appdata\local but without success.

 

I get this in the .log

 

ERROR [2017-10-16 12:13:40,351] [1] [SourceTree.App] [.ctor] - finish EnsureSquirrelExecutionStubIsCopied

Hi Gregory, you can find the solution in this other Community thread, it's the answer proposed by Mike Corsaro:

Please navigate to the config file location (C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree.exe_{RANDOM_GUID}\2.3.1.0\user.config) and find the following line:

<setting name="AutomaticallyCleanUpDictionaryFiles" serializeAs="String">

   <value>True</value>

</setting>

Make sure that value is set to True

Let us know if it worked for you!

Best regards,

Ana
