Dear all,

I encounter a small problem.
When I create a new project and save it and exit DVD-RB, then when I re-open DVD-RB pro, DVD-RB tell me that the skin has be renewed and some of my settings are lost (for exemple the decoder path is blank or HC encoder path is blank in the setup menu, and I have to enter it again.

Do I have to do something special?

thanks
Francois

1. Are you using v1.28.2?

2. Vista?

3. How did you install?

Vista creates a virtual directory where your actual updates to things in the "Program Files" path are made. For example, if you change a value in the INI via DVD-RB, the change is actully written to the INI in "%LOCALAPPDATA%\VIRTUALSTORE\Program Files\ DVD-RB Pro". If you manually modify the INI in the "c:\Program Files\DVD-RB" path after it has been updated in the VirtualStore, your change may not be recognized.

v1.28.2 actually looks in that directory for some things (if they exist there) when reading. v1.27.3 doesn't.
