Hello everybody,  
I used the krita 4.2.9 portable on Windows 10 normally. When I tried to download the new 4.30 to try it out, I got the following error: the menu bar commands disappeared, and the shortcuts were lost. I reopen the 4.2.9 version, it’s fine. Anyone have a way to help me fix the above error? I think there is something wrong with the startup file but I can’t find it.  
Thank you very much.

Remove the krita4.xmlgui file from %APPDATA%\krita
