My guess would be one of the brush (.abr) files is bad. Take out all the ones you put in that folder. Then, put back one at a time, restarting the Editor each time. Eventually, you'll get the error again, and that will be your bad .abr file.

I personally don't put brushes in that directory, as too many can slow the Editor at startup. When I want a custom brush set, I click on the right-facing triangle at the top of the brush drop down menu in the brush tool, and choose "Load Brushes" or use the Preset Manager to load them.

I agree with Trish. I keep my downloaded brushes on my external drive and load from there.
