%AppData%/ .../paths.txt is emptied by each new start of EA !
« on: February 22, 2024, 11:42:13 pm »
The file storing the local paths is updated when I use the local path dialog.
However, if I then stop EA and start it again the file path.txt is overwritten with an empty paths.txt with a
data of 2003 !

This is happening without any other process changing the roaming profile ! I can indeed close EA, edit the
file, start EA again and the error occurs.

This is almost certainly a bug. Does anyone else use the feature of local paths for code generation in EA 16.1 ?
I checked the 15.2 version of EA. The local path is persisted correctly with this old version. I do not where the old version stores
the path, it does not appear to be in the same file.

Thanks for any help with this

Stefan,

Is EA installed as a "virtual" app or a regular app?
In case it's virtual, that might be the cause of the problem.
