Lynne...

Some updates have replaced the INI, but I don't recall it happening often (maybe I've blocked those memories). I'd switch to the "user" area if Adobe provided a "$USERDIR" variable for structured applications. If you move the apps into the user area, you have to hard-code the path in the application definition .. annoying and error prone. So since I keep using $STRUCTDIR in my app definitions, I have to install things in the Program Files area, so I keep using the default maker.ini (not a great excuse, but that's my thinking).

Thanks for the tip with "back" .. although it seems to not be persistent. Guess it's not related to the update install.

Cheers,
...scott

I just installed the 16.0.4 update, and see the following oddities ..

- the update blindly installed a new maker.ini, which wiped out all plugins registered there a well as any customizations (yes, I know, I should use the maker.ini in %appdata% .. but still, I don't recall this being done with earlier updates)

Scott,

   I believe all updates have replaced the main maker.ini; it is part of the distribution and may have changes.



- hosed the "welcome page" in both FM2019 and FM2017

   The Welcome Page seems to have been destroyed today independently of the update. Select the Back command from the context menu to restore it.
