How did you upgrade to the new version? Have you used the installer or just copied the content of the zip file over the installed version?

I can't reproduce this, works fine for me. Can you have a look in the Javascript Console (under Tools - Web Development) after the error occured? Are there any errors or warnings shown (if there's already a lot of content in the console, clear it and try it again)?

This can be the effect of a corrupt compreg.dat. You can try to fix this by deleting compreg.dat in your profile. It will be regenerated with the next browser start.

You were correct.  Removed compreg.dat. File regenerated and works fine.
