Installer destroys custom window settings

Feedback Type: Troubleshooting Report

Contributed by: WillMardis Wednesday, August 10 2005 @ 05:25 AM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

CAUTION! On 3/3 computers onto which I installed Smile 3.0.6, most if not all of my custom window settings had reverted to their default settings after restarting my machines. Better take a picture of those windows whose icon placement you want to keep-you'll have to restore them after installation and restart.

System Info:Mac OS X.4.2, 2 desktop G4 Macs, 1 PowerBook, and with ≥1 G of RAM

Installer destroys custom window settings - Mr Tea

Confirmed. But only on the startup volume. Fortunately, I keep most of my stuff™ elsewhere.

That sounds terrible. - Lickableunix

I believe you, and consequently I'm scared away. Too bad, this looks like an otherwise good way for me to get rolling with Applescript.
