This is weird. Because I'm trying to import tables into my database but when i click the button it does not open.  
I opened the Knownexception.xml file and deleted its contents. now it pops an error when i click on import it pops an error and i'm not sure what to do next  
Thanks!

Can you give us the exact steps that leads to the issue, and what you are attempting to do? (e.g. how many tables, what options, etc.) Vid or screen shots will also help.

Ok, not a good panel, of course. First thing's first...

1. Have you connected to a data source first, before attempting to bring up the Export-Import Wizard?
2. Try upgrading to version 5.2 and see if this issue continues to happen.

If none of the above brings up the wizard successfully, then this is a job for our Support folks... would encourage you to open a support ticket with them.
