Can you go to C:\Users(username)\AppData\Roaming\autopsy\config and rename the file “InterestingFileSets.settings” to something else and see if it works?

Ok. Can you check the logs for a related error and copy in the first few lines? Instructions for accessing the logs: [Autopsy User Documentation: Troubleshooting](http://sleuthkit.org/autopsy/docs/user-docs/4.19.0/troubleshooting_page.html#troubleshooting_logs)

If you have no settings you want saved (like hash sets or keyword lists) you can try completely removing the user folder. That’s described on the same page I linked above.

What version of Autopsy are you running? The most recent is 4.19.1. [Autopsy | Download](https://www.autopsy.com/download/)
