Error Reading settings from Roaming file

[dnewcomb]

When starting GRASS 7.8.1 on Windows 10 x64, a message displays in the Console window:

Error: Reading settings from file <C:\Users\dnewcomb\AppData\Roaming\GRASS7\wx> failed. Details: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)

Line:

Previously GRASS 7.6.1 was used on this computer.

Please provide your wx file in order to reproduce the error.

wx file as requsted

Installed on different computer that had previously had GRASS 7.6.1 installed and did not see the same message.

Original computer had previously had an installation of 7.4.1. Possible conflict with remnants of 7.4.1 installation?
