Hi JRoC,
Don't be upset! Try this way: delete all files and directories on the below folder if your wallet.dat is still empty or except it.
C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\BitcoinDark
Check the file extension is .conf and the exact name is: BitcoinDark.conf (I noticed your config file is BitCoinDark.conf; C language is Case sensitive!)
Rerun and hope it works!
