This error simply cannot happen, unless you have a mismatch between *very* old versions and new version, for example if you tried to "merge" some files from a pre-1.9 version into this one.

I see you don't even have the latest Couatl.exe so, it's best if you uninstall GSX, and reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Couatl engine ?" made at the end, and reinstall it, using ONLY the latest installer on our site. Don't try to add other files from previous versions manually, it will never work.
