FahMon problem - again!

Is this just me or does everyone's FahMon lose all the clients after restarting your computer?

I only have 4 clients to monitor but it is annoying as hell adding them each time!

Shouldn't lose the settings...

Does it lose the other preferences such as refresh rate? :confused:

very odd.
Mine occationally will not maximise (appears on tool bar as button but not as window)
to get round this I need to rightclick the toolbar button - select maximise, which fills the screen - uncleck show/hide log and then resize (can't grap edges when full screen)
Happens once a month maybe without fail - very odd little programe but I like it.

Yes! Just checked and the refresh rate was back at the default 5 minutes.

Very odd. How hard is it to save the info lol.

EDIT: Okay just had a little play and it looks like it only saves the config when you exit. All I can assume is it doesn't get chance to do this when shutting Windows down. Made a backup of the config files anyway so its just a copy and paste job if it loses it again lol.

So as long as you close it properly after you make setting changes it should be ok.

I always close all the programs that I opened before I shut Windows down.

So I've never had the problem, but it's good to know.

I can confirm this one - it doesn't save unless you close it before you close Windows. If I add a client, I always close and re-open FAHMon afterwards, in case I forget (which I probably would)
