Need a way to Reset settings (Runcher gets stuck when opened). #10

Describe your problem Hey, I have downloaded the Runcher today and opened it. Initially it worked but then I tried to manually add a path for a game that it didn't recognize. I have closed the program and reopened it and now it no longer works. I figured out the new setting might have caused the issue so I went to the AppData folder and deleted it in hopes of removing the setting, however it didn't work. I figure out the settings are saved somewhere else (not in the extracted folder and not in Roaming).

Can you help me out in resetting the program to the default settings ? Extra info? I have used the latest version.

Runcher settings are not saved to appdata, but to the windows registry. Not sure exactly where QSettings saves them, but they have the "runcher" name on them so they should not be too hard to find.

Thanks, the problem was that I accidently made the default game the one that I added, I removed the setting in the registry. Now there is the second problem to address, I am not sure why but the Runcher gets stuck when I try to enter the Thrones of Britanna (the game I manually added the path to), it does work fine with the games it did recognize (WH3 for example).

Are there specific instructions in the way that manual adding of games needs to be done ? (I just entered the folder's location)
