Troubleshooting startup errors in Dreamweaver (updating dreamweaver): The following translators were not loaded due to errors

This is a follow up to a previous article: Dreamweaver version 8 wont start!

Having followed the procedures in updating dreamweaver (as mentioned in said article), Dreamweaver did startup successgully but this time errors kept popping:

The following translators were not loaded due to errors (any of the ff. may appear):
ASP.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
ASP.NET.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
ColdFusion.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
PHP_MySQL.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
JSP.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
XSLT.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.

A solution to this may be applied:

Delete FileCache.dat files from the Dreamweaver user configuration folder.

Delete the WinFileCache-7A9586CB.dat, MacFileCache-BFE7CE2E.dat, or FileCache.dat file from the Dreamweaver user configuration folder. It is recommended to delete the FileCache.dat file if you are experiencing a JavaScript error related to "dwscripts" or if you are receiving a "translators were not loaded" error message. The string of characters after "FileCache-" may differ on your machine. The location of the FileCache.dat file depends your operating system and your version of Dreamweaver. Note that on Windows, the Application Data and AppData folders are hidden by default, so verify that your Windows Explorer folder options are set to View Hidden Folders.

Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration

Yes it worked, few months back, when I had encountered the same case, I had uninstalled and then reinstalled DreamWeaver again to solve this issue.
