I installed the latest version, and all my settings appear intact. At least, the board colours and number of threads are as I remember them.
I've tried on 2 PCs and both are OK. I still have the problem on my desktop where I have to move a dialog window a few mm before I can click a second option. The laptop is OK. The Windows build is the same, but they are different gen processors. Desktop: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS Build 19045.3930 Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19053.1000.0 Laptop: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1265U 1.80 GHz Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS Build 19045.3930 Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19053.1000.0 -- Ian -----Original Message----- From: bug-gnubg-bounces+ian.shaw=riverauto.co...@gnu.org <bug-gnubg-bounces+ian.shaw=riverauto.co...@gnu.org> On Behalf Of Isaac Keslassy Sent: Sunday, February 11, 2024 7:13 AM To: bug-gnubg@gnu.org Subject: Re: GNUbg version 1.08.001 available 1) SAVING SETTINGS: I have also had the problem of gnubg 1.08 not saving settings, or rather, reporting that it is saving them but not loading them. Reinstalling gnubg doesn't help. It only worked for me once I selected to remove all of my preferences during the installation process (you need to make sacrifices to help debug!). I noticed in the faulty installation that I had both a ".gnubgautorc" and a "gnubgautorc" file in my preferences folder. This may be the reason: it may save in one file and read from the other. I tried to correct the error in gnubg.c, but cannot do it due to the 2nd problem below: 2) WINDOWS COMPILATION: I cannot compile and run gnubg 1.08 on Windows using MSYS2. Once compiled, gnubg cannot open any of its needed files (MET, weights, textures, etc). Jon kindly helped and encountered the same issue on his computer. He mentioned it could be an issue with g_fopen. Any idea anyone? On 10-Feb-24 11:56 PM, Murat K wrote: > On 2/9/2024 10:59 PM, Murat K wrote: > >> It replaced my gnubgautorc with a default file.
