Styles will not load

Report ID: 1076356446

I upgraded to Zotero 6.

I opened Zotero and the error message popped up immediately that styles and translators could not load.
I restarted Zotero.
Same Error message immediately upon opening.
I restarted my computer.
Same Error message immediately upon opening.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Zotero.
Same error message immediately upon opening.

I also upgraded my Microsoft Word plugin which did not help.

I have clicked the '+' button on the 'add styles' portion of Zotero but it also throws an error when I attempt to download a style.
  • I fixed it by completely uninstalling Zotero, deleting the storage file on my computer, reinstalling Zotero, then syncing from my online library.
  • That was way overkill, by the way. You could've just reset translators from the Advanced → Files and Folders pane of the Zotero preferences or deleted the 'styles' folder in your Zotero data directory. This didn't have anything to do with your Zotero data.
  • I did both reset translators AND deleted the styles folder in the Zotero data directory. Neither of them worked. I apparently neglected to put that in the list of things I tried.
  • Sorry, I meant the 'translators' folder.

    My point is just that deleting your database and resyncing was not necessary here and wasn't what fixed this.
