Strange SB start up problem!!

Keep in mind I made no changes (right) that could cause this problem When I start a flightI have been doing the same sequence for years...I get an error"sorry SB has encountered a problem as has to close". Itroulbleshooted to the limite..well...I removed SB and re-installed 4 times, I also re-installed flightsim 9 ..but the same error and I removed all files in my C that were related to both programs just in case , butthe conflick is still around.My question..could the problemlie in a file in the registry..that is a file related to SB.And the only way to rid the problem is to delete the files in thereg related to SB ? Is this touchy way to do things?Hmmmm?!MikeBTW, my method odf the removal of some files did not affect fs4 as I still use it ofline...but!!
