Washington default location for screensaver

Post by stevenw »

Hi,

I have installed YoWindow on my computer at work and I love it, however when I configure it as my screen saver, my loction is always washington, rather than Sydney. I have tried to configure it but it doesn't save the settings.

When I run it normally the settings are saved ok

Is there some other location where the screen saver settings can be saved?

Hey, Steven!
You need to select Sydney in Screensaver page of Options dialog.
I have checked it in the latest build, and it works.

If you still experience problem with selecting an arbitrary location for the screensaver please send me screenshots of the YoWindow Screensaver options page with locations list open.
Get YoWindow weather app for your phone or tablet.

Hi,

It works fine on my install at home, but at work my profile points to a server (Application Data).

The file is created ok in my o:\Application Data\Yowindow but no settings are saved on exit.

I don't think it likes having the Application data on a remote server. My previous post was incorrect as no settings are saved.


My Options.xml file only has this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<options>
<wimo>
<license autoId="1284C6BA0F0">
</license>
<landscape>
<plugins>
<plugin id="village">
</plugin>
</plugins>
</landscape>
</wimo>
</options>


There doesn't seem to be any of my settings in their when I close the product, but when running, it has more.

Any ideas?

I get this in my log.txt file too

Sure!
The network problems!

I have added the error on our task list.
I hope I will be able to solve it.

Thank you very much for the log file citation, this gives all the information I need.
