Won't Create Game

[thoyal]

Hi! I'm new to Stencyl. I just barely downloaded it. However, when I click "create" to make a game, a notification pops up saying there is an error. Then it won't let me create a game. What should I do? It wants me to attach my logs. I don't know how to attach the logs, but these are the details of the problem:

I don't know if those will help, but I hope they do. What should I do?
Thanks,

The error seems to point to a saving/loading problem, but posting the full logs might help.  To do so go to Debug > Logs > Generate Logs.  Then attach the ZIP file using the button on the right side of this page.
