Re: TopComponent not running

The log notes the user directory:

>    Home Directory          = C:\Users\ReStart
>    Current Directory       = C:\Program Files\pctmonitor
>    User Directory          = C:\Users\ReStart\AppData\Roaming\.pctmonitor\dev
>    Cache Directory         = C:\Users\ReStart\AppData\Roaming\.pctmonitor\dev\var\cache

I've seen issues occur when updating the names of TopComponents where
old persistence data causes some kind of error when loading.  Also,
from the log it looks like there are a lot of keyboard short cuts
defined that link (i.e., uses shadows) to things that are maybe
removed.

One thing to try is moving that dev folder (rename it, back it up,
etc.) then try running the program.

Also, I see "201510222201" in a lot of the module names.  What version
of NetBeans is being used?
