Re: DecoderPro Opens every time as a new install

Thanks Dave, I will try to get over there on Friday morning to get the information.

George,
Before starting DecoderPro, use the file manager and go to C:\Users\<username>\JMRI.? Replace <username> with the name of the Windows user used for logon.
You should see a similar list of files as shown here.
You probably will not have the PanelProConfig2.properties file or the jython directory unless you also use PanelPro.
In the log directory there will be session.log and messages.log files.? Upload the messages.log file to the group's ProblemsBeingWorkedOn file folder.

Subject: [jmriusers] Decoder Pro Opens every time as a new install

Team,
?
I really need some help on this issue.? I posted on it a couple weeks back and got zero replies.
?
At the museum we have a Dell PC running Windows 10 and Java 11.? Currently JMRI version 5.10 is running on the machine.? Every time JMRI opens it is a new install running the set-up wizard where we have to choose the Sprogg unit, the com port, etc.? It also does not remember that there should be a roster of locomotives.? ?I uninstalled the JMRI software by selecting uninstall in the apps window.? I confirmed that all directories are removed from the system.? I re-installed JMRI.? There is no change in the behavior.? Save locos to the Roster, it recognizes them until the next time decoder pro is started and then it opens as a new install with the wizard wanting you to choose Sprogg, com port, etc.? Once you do that it comes up with no roster.
?
I'm at my wits end on this one.? Can someone offer suggestions or ideas to try.
?
