Cannot select parts in VAB?SPH after moving 1.0 save to new install.

[Crescentius]

So I upgraded my PC recently, and moved save files to a new clean install of Win7 and KSP. Now when I load my save and enter the VAB, the parts list appears but the categories to the left of the parts are missing, and whenever a part is selected it just jumps to the center of the floor. Parts on existing craft cannot be selected. This occurs with and without mods.

Here's the odd bit: if I load a new career save, everything works correctly, and if I load my old save afterwards, everything works! Now if I load the old save first on booting up KSP, the vab will break, and will also be broken in the NEW save if I switch save files without restarting the game.

I guess this is technically a workaround, but it's a pain in the backside to have to load two save files every time I start the game. Does anyone have any thoughts?

I've reported similar problem. Either reinstall the mod (MechJeb?) or try another solution given here:

Delete the parts database.cfg in the root folder, this helped me so far everytime I encountered this error.

If your TechTree is missing too, open your persistent.cfg from the current save and search for TechTreeUrl and replace it with the one of a newly and fresh created save as Module Manager for example changes this URL and messes things up when some mods are missing in the new install.

Techtree save edit fixed it! Thank you!
