The TPM file could not be parsed

Post by cbustaam »

Hi all, I'm getting this error when I try to Refresh FNDB, update the packages or manage it. How can I solve it?

The log is:

I am having the same error message when I try to update, refresh FNDB, and other settings functions. Any ideas? Thanks.
