are you seeing the same effect as the other user i.e. ManageTabs.ascx.cs grows in size? I cant find anything about this issue (i.e. unexpected character - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/59k0x971.aspx ), and can't guess why it's affecting your install and 1 other and not any of the other 60,000+ downloads. All I can suggest is opening managetabs.ascx.cs, opening notepad, copying and pasting the text over and saving that file as managetabs.ascx.cs.

I am having the same issue. I cannot access "Page Settings" or "Add" tabs from Page/Actions tab in the control panel. On the Admin/Pages page I cannot access the "More Settings" tab. These features are working on a locally installed copy of DNN6 but not on a hosted site at Godaddy.

The file DesktopModules/Admin/Tabs/ManageTabs.ascx.cs was growing in size from 144KB to 147KB. The file was inserting '਍' into the file. I ran a debug in Visual Studio on a downloaded local copy of the site and found that DesktopModules/Admin/Languages/LanguageEditor.ascx.cs and ResourceVerifier.ascx.cs in the same directory were similarly corrupted. I replaced the files with copies from a install version of DNN 6. I now get a different error message. I have checked the ManageTabs.ascx.cs file and am unsure if I'm looking in the right place to fix the issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
