Preferences not saved
jodybingo:
Hi Corey, one copy of TD loses my saved preferences every time I restart TD. I have set the prefs.sav to Read Only and get an error when TD starts. Is there anything I can do before purging TD from my laptop and starting over?
Corey Cooper:
If you set the preferences file to read-only, the TD will not be able to save your preferences (it can't write over a read-only file). In other words, that seems like an expected error.
I can only assume you set it as read-only because it seems to lose them when you restart?
jodybingo:
I set it to read only hoping TD wouldn't overwrite my settings then when TD gor upset with me for doing that I unchecked the Read Only box.
But nontheless whenever I shut down my preferences reset.
As a side note, the receipts do not reset to the default, but to an earlier receipt template I used
Corey Cooper:
That is even stranger, because it sounds like it is reading a different preferences file than you are expecting. Yet, at the same time, it errors when it is unable to write over the preferences file you ARE expecting.
Do you have a "config.properties" file in your Tournament Director install folder?
jodybingo:
Hi Corey, I cannot find any config.properties in my install folder. I checked on another installation that does not lose the preferences and cannot find config.properties either
