Wrye Bash Startup Error

[LindyBear]

I've run into a problem when starting Wrye Bash. When running the program I receive only an error message. I've tried reinstalling it completely with no success, same error. I've put my bug dump log in the quote bellow. In regards to what started this I believe it had something to do with running LOOT. Wrye bash ran completely fine earlier today until I ran LOOT with it open, closed the program and tried to reopen it only to find errors.
