Whenever I open “Browse” an error occurs. I’ve tried the “Shift button to temporarily disable add-ons” and tried “check database” but the error persists. I’m not too sure what this error does to my decks as I’m not seeing any problems but would like to know how to fix it for the long term.

[This is the error message after disabling the add-ons using the Shift button]

This should be fixed in the next release.
