Render Manager now shows wrong window

I'm using FCP 6. A few weeks ago the Render Manager window changed inexplicably. It now looks like a partial Browser window. I have to go to the drive where rendered files are stored in order to delete.

Any thoughts? Many thanks.

Solution: In System Settings, I changed the Video Render scratch disk to another drive, and subsequently the proper Render Manager window appeared. Then I went back to System Settings and switched to the previously selected Video Render scratch disk. The Render Manager window continued to read as it should.

I guess a glitch in FCP can cause the Render Manager window to format as the Browser window. This doesn't seem to be specific to FCP6, as I found a reference to the same problem mentioned in LAFCPUG dating back to 2003.

"Any thoughts?"

weird display issues can often be fixed by trashing your prefs.
