Hi I am running MediaMonkey 5.0.1.2433 on Windows 10 64bit (version 21H1 OS build 19043.1288)
I am syncing with a Sony NW-ZX100 Walkman over USB.
I have been using this successfully for many years with MMW4, but I did notice recently when I upgraded to MMW5 that sync has gotten dodgier (it often takes about 10 minutes for my Walkman to show up in MediaMonkey as a connected device, even though Windows knows its connected)
However tonight it has started throwing an Application Error when I go to sync ("Application throw an exception TMetadataStorageHandler.readTracksFromDeltaJSON has failed to parse:" )
If I click Continue on the error, it won't
If I click Restart on the error, it doesn't
Problem when trying to Sync a device: TMetadataStorageHandler.readTracksFromDeltaJSON has failed to parse...

Re: Problem when trying to Sync a device: TMetadataStorageHandler.readTracksFromDeltaJSON has failed to parse...
sometimes when I try to restart, it looks like there's already an undead version of MMW5 still running,
so I get an error about a port already being in use and it tells me to go to Options > Library > Media Sharing and fiddle with the settings. But I don't see much useful to do there...
I guess I need to install a debug build to troubleshoot this...?
Or is there some cache somewhere I could be clearing that might help?

Probably worth mentioning:
the Sony ZX100 Walkman has both it's internal flash memory and a MicroSD card in it - and you have to select on it which of those is for 'USB file transfer' - they show up as different connected devices in MediaMonkey.
I was getting the error when trying to sync the SD card -
I just switched back to syncing in the Walkman's internal memory and that still worked fine...
....but when I switch back to reading syncing from the SD card again, it still gives the error.
(The Walkman is working fine, there's no problem playing from the SD Card)

Well, I got impatient and so I just reformatted the Walkman's SD card.
MMW5 is now happily re-syncing my entire library onto it without any error message. Given that my library is about 3/4 of a Terabyte, this is gonna take a while...
I'm guessing there was just one corrupted metadata file or something on the SD card that I could have wiped in order to fix this less drastically/time-consumingly...?
