It crashes there, and I know that's where my settings are reset because some lines after, the AuraMode setting is back to AuraStatic (the default)

@catthetech hello,

I was recently adding some tweaks to prevent config reset if you quit app incorrectly (i.e during saving something into config).

Just update to the latest release https://github.com/seerge/g-helper/releases/tag/v0.194

Thanks.
