The Designer x64 reported: Error opening translation database file:/C:/Program Files/Alter

Hi

I reinstalled Alteryx and suddenly got this error:

The Designer x64 reported: Error opening translation database file:/C:/Program Files/Alteryx/bin/Messages/Glot.dat?immutable=1:unable to open database file.

Any idea how to fix this?

i checked the folder and i don't see any Glot.dat file.

thank you!
