Not "a lot of desktops" -- 80% of desktops. *Most *desktops. 

Ok. Rebooted. I also turned off my add blocker and privacy badger. Was able 
to create an empty edition. Hurrah!

But then I tried entering a path to an existing data folder, and got the 2 
byte settings file again.

The main problem appears to be that settings gets written over as a 2 byte 
file when using the manual settings option. Even if it doesn't like the 
file path I give it, that shouldn't make it write a corrupt settings file.

Remember also that the "field" field has a focus problem, making it 
infuriatingly difficult to write a proper name their. That suggests 
something is wrong with the code, since the path entry does not have the 
same problem.

Maybe I should try again and completely skip the manual settings tab.
