User.ini - Desperately need this!

[Stef123]

No worries from my side.
It's related to maintenance only, not something that impedes usability or hinders my workflow.
I rather see you working on tangibles with immediate user payoff

May be also impractical but just throwing out this idea: How about a way to generate a report (plain text/NotePad) that would simply list all INI values that deviate/differ from defaults? That could help track down which settings might need to be looked at...might be easier than coding for and maintaining a separate file.

There are external compare utilities that could also be used IF there was a automatically generated default INI file stored on install/updates.

[Stef123]

That works already, without the need for plain text reports. You can run compare tools on ini files directly.
I think the original idea (binocular222) was geared towards easier maintenance. To rule out inconsistencies like these:

I strongly support this suggestion because after updating to new version I lose some customized settings

Hm, upgrading power filters works perfectly. Something must be wrong at your end. How do you download and install a new version?

Upgrading this works perfectly. No idea what could go wrong here.

[yusef88]

can I send you my XYplorer.ini to reveal where the problem lies?

[admin]

Sure, send me the INI that contains your 41 power filters and will lose them on upgrade.
