Cannot Save Preferences

Post by *commnthings »

I've just migrated to a new laptop (HP Pavillion 15z - Windows 10 Home, TC 9.51 x64) and the Save Preferences will not save the button setting in the left panel. I have the Left set to cm_SrcTree and the Right to cm_srcshort. The right panel opens correctly but the left opens with cm_srclong which is also on the Button Bar, between the other two. Settings are identical to my desktop which opens correctly.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Make sure your wincmd.ini is writeable. You can find its location via menu Help - About Total Commander.
If it's under c:\windows or c:\Program files or c:\Program files (x86), you need to give yourself write rights via Alt+Enter properties, or set a different location of the ini file.
