Sweet!
Installation had no problems here (although I do have 2 firmware update tools in the start menu)
Projects opening perfectly too
cant hardly wait to start.
Install went fine. But when I try to open a project, I get "Unable to load C:\Users\jdeba_000\Documents\EZ-Builder\MyProjects\gb-wbwithoutcam.EZB. Reason: There was an error reflecting type 'EZ_Builder.Config.ConfigurationV2'
I am going to uninstall and download again, And try again.
