C-More "Settings.ini" not found
PSA for those of us who have to support older stuffs!
C-More Version 2.77
I have to make changes to an old project. I have no intention of updating this panel SW/FW. I am not going to replace it with an EA9 until this panel fails.
Going to simulation, C-More complains that it cannot find Settings.ini.
This ---> C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Local\Temp\C-more (00420984)
is NOT a normal file-structure browsing location.
The dialog was correct. I created a BLANK file, named it appropriately and retried.
The simulator worked.
True, but for some reason it must have failed to create the file this time. Maybe the (MIS/IT WORK INHIBITOR) virus/malware package interfered!
I started the software to test a format/layout change in an existing project and saw this error when I invoked the simulator.
I closed, reopened Ver 2.77 and retried the sim. It worked without issue this time.
I am not requesting anything. I posted in case anyone else (or FUTURE ME) has this issue.
I pointed out that it was not a normal browsing location for users because some of us (ME!) have trouble finding TEMP and virtualstore type folders -- through various WINVER installations and various programming PC/laptops.
That is what the Community is for. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your post!
I had the similar issue with v6.53
I made some changes to an EA9 panel saved on my PC. Saved the changes and tried to Simulate, only to get a "...\Settings.ini file not found" I also got the same error when trying to save again (force of habit before closing an open file I had been working on).
Thanks to your post, I navigated to the folder location for the expected .ini file and created a new .txt file that I renamed "Settings.ini" and everything works again :)
You are welcome.
That is great to hear!
