You are missing mapinfo.dat. What does the *.PNA file say? (open with notepad) |

Firstly, make a search for mapinfo.dat on your system - it's about 21MB, have a look in your backup folder |

methinks if you replace this file, everything should be back to normal. I suppose you can get it from any other WE map with same version (5.68) |
