Just to add that it's not enough to delete and re-install TiddlyDesktop. One also needs to delete the application data folder. The location of the folder depends on your operating system, though. On Macs it's in ~/Library/Application Support/TiddlyDesktop, and I believe it's C:\Users[YOUR_USER_NAME]\AppData\Local\TiddlyWiki on Windows.
