I also have this issue - maybe it depends to the new window restore feature of Lion?
I didn't research a lot, but it seems I see this issue if I shut down my Mac while PM is running.
After that I've to use TimeMachine to restore Library/Preferences/*photomechanic* - timestamp a week ago

I'm using PM 468b1 on OS X 10.7

Sorry for less details - I've to develop images of a wedding this weekend

Can you send me your preferences file before and after the issue has occurred?  Contact me privately for an email address you can send the files to.

Thanks,

I encourage everyone experiencing this issue to get Photo Mechanic 4.6.8 Beta 2 here:

http://forums.camerabits.com/index.php?topic=6550.0

Several people on this thread have confirmed that the new beta fixes this issue.
