In this case, but is Mac-specific. The paths to various files as stored in preferences are using NSUrl data. Before any path-related setting for jzintv is sent, however, the UI validates it.

Problem was that the C# System.IO.Path APIs operate on path strings, not "Uri" strings -- the necessary conversion from file:// syntax to file system path syntax was missing.

Furthermore, found that some other paths aside from hackfile were affected, though they are not presently exposed in the UI. Up to two CGC adapters are supported. The CGC configuration isn't exposed since it's untested, and may be unsupported in Windows versions newer than Windows xp anyway due to driver issues.
