XML parsing error fatal... Can I uninstall and reinstall DW CS4 without losing my job?

I have a big problem with Dreamweaver CS4 for Mac. When I want to start DW I get this error that goes something like this: fatal XML parsing error: an invalid document structure, line: 1, file: / filepath/John Workspace.xmlPicture 1.png

I click ok and get this:

Click on ok and close DW. It gives me no chance to change preferences or whatever it is.

It seems that I need to uninstall and reinstall. What do you recommend? Do I lose all the work I did on the previous sites?

I don't think that there is no need to reinstall. Go to the specified location and delete Workspace.xml of John. Then try to run Dreamweaver. If Dreamweaver still will not start. remove the entire Configuration folder. Dreamweaver should then create a fresh Configuration file the next time you start.

Reinstall without getting rid of the folder Configuration will achieve nothing, because the Configuration file is not deleted when reinstalling. If the Configuration file is damaged, the problems will continue until the corrupted file is deleted.
