Is this Unity 2 or Unity 3?

I think I had something similar recently whilst messing with some editor scripts. Pretty sure I had the same or similar message, but it disappeared after re-opening Unity.

However later I noticed a persistent tiny 16x16 pixel window in the top left of the desktop. It couldn't be selected, closed or anything. I tried looking for some Unity cfg/preferences for editor windows to remove it, but didn't find anything.

In the end I tried re-setting the editor layout (top right of editor) to default and that got rid of it. Might be worth a try.

Of course you should also check that you don't have any bugged editor scripts or 'failed to load' editor tabs around, i.e. anything else that may be related to the error.

Failing that one place I didn't look (on Windows) was the registry to see if Unity stores its editor windows in there. Assuming you are using Windows, it might be worth a rummage, before the final solution of re-installing Unity.

You could try to make a new projects folder and see if that fixes the problem. If that does not work then try running the program as an administrator and if that does not work and it does not make it crash or anything just ignore it i guess.

@veryhungryhobo Hey everyone. So I solved the problem with this error.

"MissingReferenceException: The object of type 'DockArea' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it. Your script should either check if it is null or you should not destroy the object.

Failed to destroy editor windows: # 1

In the image below you will see:

An empty scene where nothing is selected (number 2), as you can see the object (number 4) is not selected, the viewing window by the standard is not active (number three), it cannot be called up. Even in the windows> Preview menu. or hotkeys shift + ctrl + Tab

Here's the thing: I'll show you how to solve it, Unity editor alt text

as you see, when you select an object from the project menu window, the object appeared in the viewport (number 3). The editor seems to tell us, "- I will only open the viewport when you select an object"

alt text

to cause us an error, we need to make the window permanent (thereby disrupting the script). Choose an object (number 1) and pull out the viewport (number 2) to set it where we need to demonstrate the error. Now, as you can see, we set the window back in place (number 3), but now this window will always be active (the object in the project is not selected and the window is active) which will cause an error (because it cannot show what is not)
