I am trying to figure out what might be wrong. Basically, I am not able to edit any user accounts. Once I click Edit in User Manager I get the attached exception.
Any advise would be much appreciated.
Sitecore version is 6.6.0 (rev 130214)
here is the exception from the log file:

I replaced the whole of the shell folder as suggested and the issue disappeared. I assume it was either missing or corrupt file.
