Hi everyone. Thanks for all the suggestions. I tried them all but no joy.
I figured out what caused it. I am using Monte’s lcVCS plugin to keep the project in bitbucket and I was trying to work on it on the Mac and Windows by making changes on the Mac and then updating the stacks by exporting to lcVCS, committing and pushing the changes to bitBucket and then on the Windows Machine fetching the changes and pulling them to the repo on my Windows machine and then use lcVCS to create stacks from files. I recently finished a branch and was merging it back into my version branch on the Mac. When I tried to fetch the changes on Windows there were lots of conflicts. I don’t really understand git process really well for merging etc so I kind of hacked away at it till I got the two repos back in sync with the origin so in the process I must have ended up corrupting some of the scripts in the stack so they would not load. The stack would open and run properly which was odd… So to fix it just zipped up the version on my Mac, Copied it over to the PC and opened it there and it worked. So now I am back in business. Thanks for for your time in responding. Your responses got me to look at the problem from a few different angles till I could see the light through the cracks.
