Game shows error message on startup (but still works for some reason), Atlas Editor doesn't open.

As the title says, whenever I start up 0 A.D., it shows this message:

And whenever I try to open Atlas Editor, whether from 'Open Scenario Editor' in game or the app itself, it shows the icon that symbolizes the app is open, but no window appears. Then suddenly is closes and nothing happens.

Are you sure your installation is fine? Sounds like the public.zip (the one containing all the game data) is unreadable.

I re-installed the game and now it's all fine.
