PF 4.0 (version 25) hangs at start up

After a pc-problem (we think) on a mates computer we reinstalled PF from scratch.
Removed the software (because it does not start this morning). Yesterday no problem.
The only thing Alois (the mate) did was chosing colors on his carts.

This morning PF hangs at startup.
There are no other programs active only PF.
First the registration did not work anymore (key on usb). After removing and reinstalling PF v25, we can register on USB fine.
We put the -usbreg cmd at the startup. We see the name of him on the startupscreen... but PF hangs at

RESTORING LAYOUT.... we are waiting now for more then 35 mins.
It worked fine for days...

Maybe some layout 'things' go corrupt during the PC-Problem.
Please try to delete the .layout file (or even all .layout files) in the ProppFrexx AppUserData folder...

Interesting... If I do not put in my license details it installs without issues and opens in Demo mode. If I put in my license (on USB) it crashes

Hi Ben,
can you please contact "Per Cramer" (as he paid for your license; he seems to have deactivated your license - that's why it doesn't start anymore)!
Sorry for that, but please sort this out with Per ...
