Any .tasproj I have tried to open in TAStudio in 1.11.8 or 1.11.8.2 (of Faxanadu for the NES) has failed to load, giving me:

In 1.11.8, I was able to create a new .tasproj from the .bk2s that I was saving as backups (thank you for that feature!) but trying to load a .bk2 in 1.11.8.2 gave the above error as well.
Clarification: A .tasproj or a .bk2 saved in the directory where I keep my input files will not load and gives the above error. A .tasproj in ./Movies/backup/ will also give that error, but a .bk2 loaded from there (created automatically by the autosave functionality) becomes a new project without issue.
