Checks and expected results

Before you repair it

Record which preset and menu action fail and check for a matching Customs\Controls error.
Close ACC and preserve the complete saved control-preset folder.
Move the active preset folder aside for a clean-menu test without deleting the backup.

How to confirm the result

Reopen the Controls menu and test a newly created preset. Reintroduce saved presets individually only after checking they do not reproduce the failure.

Repair limits and when to stop

Saved presets will be temporarily unavailable. This does not prove the active controls.json is damaged or repair a wheel that Windows cannot detect.

How PitMedic recognizes it

ACC identifies a saved Customs\Controls preset as invalid or failed immediately before a Controls-menu crash.

ACC troubleshooting reports identify Customs\Controls as the saved preset location; PitMedic acts only when the implicated preset is named and moves it intact rather than deleting it.
