It will not be maintained in beta 2 when you disable "history" in "Save on exit" settings.
That good to hers :-) but some users might still want to save the ordinary history, but not the frequently used history.
True. These two things should be kept separate.

There is not enough space for 2 checkboxes. Power users can just set DirUsageLocation=nul or so.

No, FrequentlyUsedLen is like HistoryLen, it's the number of items displayed in the history list.

In beta 2, cm_ConfigSaveDirHistory will save both the history and frequently used list.

So maybe it's finally time to start unlocking the potential of dialogue a-la Wizard?
Just add another settings page. Still, the main thing is not to leave as few options as possible in access,
but still give the user an easier and more intuitive choice of these settings.

history.txt wrote:05.05.23 Fixed: Do not save most frequently used list if saving of history is disabled in Configuration - Options - Operation (32/64)
09.05.23 Added: cm_ConfigSaveDirHistory now also saves the most frequently used list (32/64)
Confirmed fixed in TC 11.00b2 :-)
