DSL Stats lost all user settings
« on: March 09, 2016, 11:08:38 AM »

This is an odd one and although annoying isn't critical
Using 5.6 and I just had a power cut (it is very windy here) and when DSL Stats restarted it had completely lost the settings/login/router type etc. as though the ini file had been wiped
Everything now working

I had a similar problem too, so I zipped up a backup copy of the dslstats.ini which I could unzip when required.

It's supposed to save the settings at the start of recording and every ten minutes thereafter, so I'm not sure what's happening. I'll look into it.

At a guess - it was in the middle of saving and the power cut as that could easily give that result

That's possible.
