I have that file indeed :

You've created, checked and set up your MaxMind inscription ?

@Gertjan thank you for the help! I went to the file location from your screen capture, and I also have this file with this title:

I am wondering how to replace, or renew this file, thinking it may be corrupted.

You use the GUI to show files - you don't see enough, like the file creation date.
That said, your file, and mine, have the same size, so I guess it's ok.

If you think the issue is soved, don't forget to empty the py_error.log file; :

@Gertjan Well, that is important to do; of course it is going to persist without deletion. I am going to do an update and see if it is fixed.

@The-Party-of-Hell-No Well, this seemed to work! After the update, the error did not come back.
