Saved Searches get Deleted by FC
Posted: 25.02.2020, 21:10
The last 2 or 3 versions of FC have had this problem. Version 810a 32bit in 64bit Win10 still has the same problem.
Like the Subject says, FC deletes my saved searches. Steps to reproduce:
* Press Ctrl-F
* Create search criteria
* On the Profiles pane, use the + icon to save the search
* Start using the search once/day
* This works for a few days
* After a few days, when you open your saved search list, the list is empty
* The only way to stop this from happening is to change FreeCommander.find.ini to be read-only
* After changing the ini file to be read-only, FC complains after closing the search window that it can't create the file because it's read-only
* Why in the world would it delete user settings?
* Maybe the better question is, Why in the world does it (try to) replace an existing user config with an empty, default config?
