I am a happy and satisfied user of BackYardEOS. I am having an issue trying to permanently change the specified: "Download Folder", "Plan Folder" and "TEMP Folder" - which are all identified and located in "Settings" - "Image Capture".

While I can change these default locations while actively using the program - and files are saved to the new locations that I specify - as soon as I exit BackYardEOS these locations reset to the default location of "MyDocuments\Pictures\BackyardEOS (and yes I did click both "apply" and "save"). I have even deleted these folders from my D: drive, and each time I go to start up BackyardEOS, it re-creates these directories. Is there a way around this.

Any help is appreciated - thanks

cheers - bob

This has happened before. where settings are not being saved. I can't remember exactly but it was due to a corrupted settings file. Please be patient and I am sure that Guylain will tell you. Or you could look back through the forum archives for how others were fixed.

Also, in the future please create a descriptive title for your post like "Settings not being saved". This makes it easier for someone with the same issue to find your thread.

Thanks.

Yep, Windows messed up the security on the config file again.

The best solution is to re-install BYE in a different folder and this should work.
