Still broken...

Friday, April 14, 2006 by AHinMaine | Discussion: RightClick

The new version still appears to be broken. It seemed ok at first, but definitely is still having the same problems. I can configure the menu how I like, close the config window, access the right-click menu, the changes I made are there. Now when I go back into the configuration section, some menu items (not necessarily *new* items, either) are now missing. Note that before I close the configuration window, these menu items are visible when I right-click my desktop, but when I close the config window, this incorrect configuration is saved.

Couldn't we please just have a simple configuration export/import function?

I'm having the same problem and it's becoming very annoying. I DL from Stardock Central, but I also bought the separate version for work. I set it up with all my submenus. It is quite slow when setting up, but otherwise it works well...until I have to shut down and reboot my PC. Then all my submenus are gone. I had to go back and recreate all my submenus, just for it to happen again. I ended up uninstalling the darn thing. Why can't they have something similar to Docks where I can save a backup and load it when it crashes? And why should it not bring back my submenus on a simple reboot?

Is someone in stardock working on this issue. I think that it is a great and very useful utility.

Thanks.

I don't even have to shutdown for the problem to show up. The minute I open the config util, even if I just closed it, there are items missing which vanish permanently when the config is automatically saved.

Also worth mentioning, if I get my configuration the way I want, exit the config to save it, verify the changes were made, create a backup of my Right Click directory, then go into the config, I see that items are missing, close the config tool saving the bad config, unload right click, restore my backup, run right click, the menu now looks the way it was configured before the backup, go back into the config, the same items are missing again...
