 * Widgets page appears but will not open sidebars etc for edit.
    I guess I’ll wait
   for the next update.
 * With 4.01 my bandwidth has halved and my traffic is cruising-along.
    I can’t 
   imagine the affect you’ve had prior to this. However, your updating far too many
   times and the disruption is over whelming. Every update has it’s own problems
   and fixing this everyday is grueling. You need to reach stability and stop.
 * I’m sorry for the blaster especially because this is free and open source and
   you deserve accolades for what you’re accomplishing. Without you and the Team,
   I wouldn’t be able to do what I’m doing. Please take this as constructive criticism.
   I owe you a debt of gratitude.
    Thanks, Dooz

 * This is likely a plugin or theme conflict.
 * Have you tried:
    -deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem.
   If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic
   plugin(s). -switching to Twenty Fourteen to rule out any theme-specific problems.
