Settings lost when updating to 64 bit under certyin circumstances
Posted: 17 Mar 2026 14:39
Hello,
years ago I installed XYplorer free. Shortly later I updated to XYplorer. Everything worked as expected.
Now I updated from 27.x to XYplorer 28.20.0300 64 bit. After first start, 28.20.0300 64 bit asked me if I wanted to keep my configuration. I said yes. But 28.20.0300 64 bit did not see that my configuration was still in C:\Users\..\AppData\Roaming\XYplorerfree. So it did not copy the files (I did that manually after I found the cause).
Thank you for your attention
