I upgraded XMM to the latest 9.0.0.5 64-bit today and launched it as administrator. The main view is only showing a detailed movies/shows table and record detailed view and tree view are not showing.
I tried to go to View -> Show/Hide Panels -> Details to enable the view but nothing happened then I tried enabling the tree view and all the views but nothing happened and at the bottom of the page there is an exception "91-object reference not set to an instance of an object..."
PS: I tried to remove all files in layout folder but the problem still exists.
I think there was already a topic showing the same problem... Try to Compact & Repair your database directly with MS Access. That has helped a user before.

I find little difference in use 64 bit with the 32, 64 have installed it on an i-7 and 32 have it on an AMD X6 and barely noticeable speed and that processors are very different.
I completely uninstalled XMM (kept a backup of course) and installed a fresh copy but now the application doesn't start at all. Once clicked I can see the waiting windows cursor but the application never starts. I opened the task manager to see if it is starting and crashing but it didn't even show in the task manager!!
1- I rebooted my machine. 2- Took a copy of whole XMM folder located in My Documents (just renamed it to "eXtreme Movie Manager 8 OLD"). 3- Install XMM 9.0.0.5 64bit. 4- Launch the application and made sure that it is functioning properly. 5- Closed XMM. 6- Copied my database and its related image folders (From step 2)to the new installation of XMM. 7- Launched XMM and chose the newly copied database (my old collection). 8- XMM works perfectly. I had to do the customized configurations like the default movie script and the details theme.
By the way, a weird thing I noticed where the scripts in the newly installed XMM where only 31 while it used to be 62 so I had to copy them manually to the newly installed XMM and update them before using them!!
Thanks JDommi for your inputs earlier and I posted this reply to inform others of the way it may help to resolve similar issue.
Ah, good to know a solution Seems as if it was a config file that has prevented XMM from starting...
To the amount of scripts: I think that there were a lot of old scripts that are no longer working. These has been removed a while ago from the new installtion files.
