Registration/settings not saved

Post by alexh » Sun Dec 04, 2022 11:25 pm

Hi,

A rather mundane question - I upgraded to Win 10 finally and now when I start Great Stella its asks for registration info every time. I tried to figure out where it saves this data but not sure. I'm running ver 4.4.

Thanks

I think this was fixed in version 5. Windows changed permissions for saving information in some places, and it meant Stella could no longer save details. Version 5 saves it differently.

First thing to try would be running Stella with admin priviledges. Might allow it to save data where it's trying to. You may or may not have to continue to run it as admin after that.

Failing that, I'm afraid you'd either have to just enter the details each time, or upgrade to version 5.4. Version 5 first came out 10 years ago, so the version 4 stream is long out-of-date now.

Thanks,
Rob.
