I haven't read every post in this thread, but I have read a lot. I haven't seen anyone post about this problem - every time I start EMM, it runs through that dialog box you get the first time EMM runs. You know, where it asks for the path to folders or files, and what type of content you want created. Its as though its not saving these settings after running.
I'm running Windows XP, and its been doing this the last 3 versions I think. I'm running r324, and its installed in the normal Program Files folder.
The app works fine after I run through the wizard, its just annoying as hell that it doesn't save these settings. Any thoughts on what can be causing this?
Hmmm... it should do that once each time you upgrade or on a new install, but not each time you open it. The wizard displays when the version saved in the settings file does not match the current version of the program.... and the version is saved to settings when you close the program. So, either you're ending task on the program for whatever reason so it's not able to save, or there is an issue saving the settings on close for you.
Is it saving any of your settings? Two things to try:
1> Make sure Ember is closed, and open the settings.xml file in a text editor (ie notepad). Look for <Version>r###</Version> (should be the first actual setting in the file) and change it to read <Version>r324</Version>. Save the file, then reopen Ember.
OR
2> Delete the settings file completely, open Ember, cancel out of the wizard, then close Ember. Reopen Ember and see if the wizard runs again.
What version does it have saved in the settings file (just out of curiosity)? If neither of these fix the problem, enable error logging and see if an error log is created when you close Ember. If so, post it's contents so I can see what's happening.
