Why does NoteTab not remember its settings?

0

A. The main reason behind this type of issue is that Windows or a protection utility is not allowing NoteTab to save its settings to disk. Usually this happens because NoteTab is configured to save its settings under the Program Files folder. When you are running Windows Vista, or running Windows XP/2000 without administrative privileges, or using certain anti-virus products, programs cannot save data in protected folders, like Program Files and WINDOWS. By default, NoteTab 5 and 6 are designed to store settings under the Application Data folder (AppData\Roaming on Windows Vista). However, if you’ve installed NoteTab 5 or 6 over version 4.x to retain your settings, NoteTab will work the old way and continue to save settings under the Program Files folder. The solution is to move NoteTab’s INI file to the Application Data folder. This procedure is explained below in the “How do I transfer settings from NoteTab 4 to NoteTab 5 or 6?” topic.
