Preferences not saved during restarts

Question

Hi, I am using ToDoList 6.1.10 as a standalone executable (ie, not installed to the registry) on Win7.

The default font of tasklist and comments is too small for me, so I have to enlarge it. Usually when I close the app and reopen I find that these preferences have not been saved; sometimes they have been. If I close the app and reboot the PC the preferences setting is never saved.

In the same way my recently used tasklists are not saved. They usually do not reopen after an app restart, but sometimes they do. They never reopen after a PC reboot, and the 'Recent Tasklist' menu is blank.

This problem started a couple months ago, and was not connected to a version upgrade or patch as far as I can tell. It's on a corporate PC, which is why no registry install, so IT may have changed a security policy that would affect this.

Any help resolving this problem is appreciated!

You should ask your question at the bottom of the article itself. That way the author will get a notification of your question. The author of this article (ToDoList 6.5.9 Feature Release - An effective and flexible way to keep on top of your tasks[^]) does not appear to frequent the Q&A.
