Unable to build Any AIR app with Flash Builder 4.0.1

[Guest]

Using Flash Builder 4.0.1 on Win 7 32bit under VM - running as Admin.

with the Flex 4.5.0 SDK

Any AIR app that I try to debug/build I get:

Launch Failed

Process terminated without establishing connection to debugger.

error while loading initial content

Launch command details:  "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.5.0\bin\adl.exe" -runtime "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.5.0\runtimes\air\win" C:\_win_work\[projectname]\bin-debug\[projectname]-app.xml C:\_win_work\[projectname]\bin-debug

Doesn't matter if it's a brand new project - or an old project - still get errors. Also doesn't matter if it's sdk 4.5.0 or 4.1.0; slightly different error with 4.1.0:

!AIRLaunchDelegate.AIRProcess.correctAppXMLProblem!

invalid application descriptor: descriptor version does not match runtime version

Launch command details:  "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.1.0\bin\adl.exe" -runtime "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.1.0\runtimes\air\win" "C:\Users\Adobe Flash Builder 4\test2\bin-debug\test2-app.xml" "C:\Users\Adobe Flash Builder 4\test2\bin-debug"

Please help.

Check your output folder under "Flex Build Path" options in the properties. Make sure the folder is correct.

Everything is set up correctly with the path folder - as this error occurs with an empty, blank, default AIR app built via "new".

I believe this is an error with 4.0.1 - as when I installed 4.5 demo (on OS X); this problem doesn't exist and I had no problems building an AIR app.

So either there's a problem with my version/copy/install of Flash Builder or it has something to do with the AIR/FB/and VMWare/Win7.

Can you post the contents of C:\Users\Adobe Flash Builder 4\test2\bin-debug\test2-app.xml? The error seems to indicate that AIR did not like something about the application descriptor file.

P.S: 4.5 Builder with 4.5 SDK is the recommended setup.
