Inirelocate.exe messes up ftp ini location...

It actually tells the registry its called wincmd.ini

RC5, and I manually fixed it by using regedit and specifying the right file.

Hello !

• You could avoid the Registry rummaging by adding rather the INI entry :

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
UseIniInProgramDir=7

• Docs tell :

UseIniInProgramDir=Flags sum
This variable will only be read if the wincmd.ini is located in the same dir as the program.
It is the sum of the following values :
0: Disabled
1: Use wincmd.ini in the program-dir. if no other location is set via the registry or parameters
2: Use wcx_ftp.ini in the program-dir. if no other location is set via the registry or parameters
4: Override the registry settings (but not the command line parameters)

- This is very useful when several versions are installed (four here)
- Each version uses alright its own INI files, no problem…

Thank you Clo, I was just pointing out a bug in inirelocate.exe in RC5.

I think?

I cannot reproduce that. What options did you choose exactly in Inireloc to get this effect?

Wanted both ini files to be in the program folder. I cannot reproduce it now either for some reason. Only change I made was a changed the existing ftp ini with one from another install.

Perhaps it was a permissions issue? Works fine now.

Strange - do you have a backup of the registry before you used inireloc? Maybe it's only happening when the registry contains some specific values in the Total Commander keys?

Actually, this was a brand new machine I just built, I copied my TC 6 folder to it then installed rc5 over that. I then tried to ftp and the dialog was blank so I then ran inirelocate. I had just assumed the rc5 installer did what I told it to do as far as where to locate the ini files. Perhaps it didn't?

This is on Winxp pro btw. No vista for me!

Well, the installer itself also writes to the registry to set the ini locations. Did you choose any ini location settings different from the default during the installation of RC5?

Nope.

One final question: Which windows version do you use now?

This is on WinXP Pro SP2 all the latest updates.
