Re: [LegacyUG] Program reverts to default.
I was wrong. I just opened Legacy and the pop-up box stated that it was "resetting Default #1". What is going on? The steps I did was Option > Customize > Colors > Background > Green > Click to change was already clicked. I then clicked save > exit > restart. All of the settings that I changed stayed the same after restarting the program. Well, the settings went back to default today when I started Legacy. I am ready to start pulling my hair out.

[LegacyUG] Settings don't 'stick"
I have been having problems since installing 7.0.0.76. Every time I open the program it goes back to default settings. Whenever I change any setting, I save them one at a time. Please tell me what I am doing wrong. Donna Roach *** Holiday discounts on Legacy 7.0, add-ons, books, and more.
