Any idea why the webserver wouldn't start on Windows 10? It doesn't give a useful error message, it just fails to start. Am I maybe just missing a specific .NET runtime? This is on A20.

I've used the script for years, and it has never let me down.
But now I'm unable to use it to edit the config.xml?
The folder is created in instances, but the management script does not work.
As the forum does flag this post as spam, here's the output of the command: https://pastebin.com/4mAiBLDz
But, in short, it simple reports issues like:
/home/sdtd/instances/NewJulAgain/config.xml: line 1: ?xml: No such file or directory

Looks like your 7dtd.conf does not have the EDITOR variable set, so instead of trying to run the editor with the XML as argument it actually tries to run the XML now. Check the current version of the conf file ( https://7dtd.illy.bz/changeset/478/scripts/etc/7dtd.conf?contextall=1 ) and compare to your local, I think adding EDITOR was the only change in a long time but just make sure everything else is as expected 
I will try to make the scripts safe against that issue in an update so it shows a proper error instead. Probably will be after new years though.

I can't believe that I didn't think of that. But, I know why. I've not tried the new solution where I'm just using a given text-editor, instead of the "wizard". But, what's great! I didn't really like the "stepping" (edit one, click, press wrong info, start over, and so on) required, in order to do it the old way.
I've set a default editor now. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Now it's here in the topic, so I'll guess people will pick it up.
Also; Points for your fast response. Much appreciated! Thank you for maintaining the script.
Now it's time to punish the server
