[Samsung Gear S2] cnguinn:
GWD will only run one time.

First, Thanks for putting together the installation tutorial. HUGH help.

Yesterday I was rocking n rolling, making watch faces, everything doing fine. Then today I had an error and GWD crashed. Now when I launch GWD I get an error dialog box. It says:

An error has occurred. See the log file C:\\Users\Chris\GearWatchDesigner\.metadata\.log.​

I can uninstall the program, and manually remove program files and settings still remaining, then reinstall clean. First time it runs OK. I close the program OK. Then the next time I start it, I get the error message again. I have tried this countless times. I even removed GWD, Java, rebooted my machine, and clean install of Java and then GWD. Still works fine first time, and crashes at start-up every time after that. I got to the point that all I did in GWD was open a sample file and look at the design. Never saved anything, no changes, no build. Still will not run after the first time.

So it appears that just the first execution is setting something that causes subsequent crashes. The only work around is a clean install of GWD for each use, and pray it doesn't crash. (It sometimes crashes).

Can anyone recognize a problem?

The contents of the log file are:
