Replace corrupted spyder.ini file (with winpython 64)

I'm working with WinPython and Spyder, and somehow spyder wouldn't start. It would briefly flash an error message of which the relevant line is: ConfigParser.ParsingError: File contains parsing errors: D:\progs\WinPython-64bit-2.7.10.3\settings\.spyder\spyder.ini [line 431]: u'_/switch to'.

Then delving into that file it seems to be clipped. It abruptly ends on line 431 with _/switch to in the [shortcuts] section of the file.

Can anyone link me to a complete spyder.ini file, I can't find it in the spyder github? Or if it's the last line (or one of the last few lines), provide me with the bit I'm missing?

Simply removing the line which was an issue and starting Spyder did the trick. Spyder rebuilt the spyder.ini file upon running spyder.exe.
