Perspective workstation won't start

Stangest thing, I’ve never seen this before. I have a single computer where we can’t start perspective. When the perspective icon is launched a screen comes up like it’s trying to find a resource on the net and it says perspective starting in 0 seconds. We can’t get to the point where we can add an application. The guy had screwed up the initial entry of the web address to the scada, but now we can’t do anything to edit it. Reinstall doesn’t help.

Delete the .ignition/ folder in the user profile directory? (You can be more selective, if you know what you’re doing, but nuking the whole folder is sure-fire).

you rock, thx, we'll try now
