title: Atom Editor Opens Strange Window Upon Launch
body: <p>I installed atom about a week ago and it worked fine until last night when it suddenly ceased working and opens some dev-tool stuff when I launch Atom. </p>
  
  <p>I get this in the console:</p>
  
  <pre><code>index.js:87 Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'C:\Users\Noah Hefner\.atom\compile-cache\less\40e22529c8729b65e1d700a7ae3f73d57ed1288f\imports.json'
