Hello Panda people, I could use some help please.

About a month ago I was having problems receiving the latest blocks and I was told to fix this by switching to classic mode and waiting for the update (v3.0.1) which had fixed the problem but a couple of days ago the problem returned once again and last night I switched back to classic mode. This morning when I turned my PC back on I got an error saying "Error loading blkindex.dat" and when I click "ok" Pandabank closes and I get the same thing if I start it up again.

Also just as a side note while I am posting here. Despite being told a month ago that the annoying update messages would soon disappear they never did for me. Maybe this problem is related, maybe not but thought it would be worth mentioning.

Thanks
Hello,
Close pandabank and delete the file blk0001.dat located in AppData\Roaming\PandaCoin then open pandabank and it should work. With newest pandabank version and try syncing in hybrid and if it does not work then try classic.

I deleted the file blk0001.dat but when I open Pandabank I still get the same error.
Back up your wallet.dat and delete all files in the pandacoin folder except for your wallet.dat. Then open pandabank. Make sure you always backup wallet.

Should I delete the 2 folders in there too?
Yes. But make sure to not delete your wallet.dat and make a backup of it.

All fixed now, thank you very much for your time.
