I get the above error when trying to use the Prefrences class... other stuff was just blabble

Just found the error that you are showing here. It is a bug in the Preferences class in WPILib. There is a fixed version of it in Stable (not Release) release of WPILibJ. Can you try updating your plugins to the Stable version by editing the plugin location and changing "Release" to "Stable" in the URL? Let me know if it work for you.

Also, there is an example of using the Preferences class here:
