[ZScreen 4] Keeps forgetting my settings #450

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
So I'm using ZScreen 4.0.0 on Win7 (32 bit), and every single time I reboot it 
has lost my settings again. The .xml files are still there, but the path to 
them is back to its default value (%APPDATA% something), so it won't read my 
settings.

My default ZScreen "profile" folder is ought to be 
C:\Users\admin\Pictures\ZScreen, as it is the most logical place to me...

http://code.google.com/p/zscreen/downloads/list please?

I would have to reboot in order to be able to reproduce the problem... the 
debug log returns the current values FOR NOW.

Anyway, I noticed another discrepancy:
I have set the root directory to C:\users\admin\Pictures\ZScreen again, it 
seemed (!) to work. Anyway, in "Paths" the wrong root directory is set again?!
(Highlighted for the screenshot.)

in "Paths" the wrong root directory is set again?! Thanks for pointing this 
out, no it was not set but a cosmetic bug. This has been fixed for the next dev 
version. Could you please let us know if this issue is fixed with the latest 
dev version you are having?

No, it is not.

More yet: After a restart, all but the "Main" tab are empty.

Found out that minimizing into the tray and restoring the window brings back 
the tab contents. Anyway, while - at least - the "\Pictures" path seems to be 
kept in 4.0.1, it still doesn't save my changed settings (like TinyPic instead 
of Clipboard for saving). I presume this is because ZScreen is not closing 
properly?

I am sorry to hear this. 

Can you setup ZScreen the way you need and do exactly this: 
Right click on the ZScreen Tray icon and click Exit. 

Load ZScreen again and see if the settings are saved 

Thanks

Hmm, seems like they are saved this time.
So ZScreen does NOT save settings directly after changing them?

It is supposed to save when ZScreen exits but it looks like your system
forcefully shuts ZScreen down before writing settings. Could you please
navigate to this tab

again
and click View Directory to Log files and send us this log file? Thanks.

Which one of the log files there?

Hmm, but when ZScreen is forcefully closed, still the EXISTING settings should 
be read the next time it is started, but they aren't...

Testing... ;-)
