Hi milone, i have an issue too

It seems that the pool priority won't update when i change it.

For exemple, if in the .conf i put in 0:pool1 and in 1:pool2, and i want to change in 0:pool2 and 1:pool1 via the manage pool and save it, it doesnt take effect.

I need to directly change it in the conf file.

Ps : 1.3.5.2 administrator mode or not, same thing. Win 8 x64

Thx

I'm unable to reproduce this problem in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. If you also can send me cgwatcher.log from your CGWatcher folder I may be able to find errors that occurred and caused this. I would normally say to make sure CGWatcher is able to write to the folder where the config file is located, but running as Administrator should have fixed that... to be clear you're not storing config files in any of the following?:

C:\Program Files
C:\Program Files (x86)
C:\ProgramData
C:\Windows
C:\Users\\Desktop

Hi, milone, sorry for late answer, the cgwatcher app wolder was in c:\
config files was in c:\users\myname\desktop\profilcgwatch\   <== perhaps the problem.

I try today to move the profile folder and the cgwatcher folder in "my documents" folder. Still the same

See my log files

Thx and sorry for my bad english
