Unfortunately, your blockchain database is likely corrupted, and needs to be moved out manually, on windows:
WINDOWS BLOCKCHAIN DATABASE RESET

Close down the Chia app, and open up a PowerShell window, and execute the below command:

mv ~\.chia\mainnet\db\block* ~\Desktop\

Then try opening up the Chia app again
if it worked, you can remove the files we put on the Desktop!
