Viewer settings resetting .. ugh

[AONEH Fallen]

Anyone else have this issue?

I have my viewer settings set and after about the 4th or 5th login, they reset to default.  It gets quite annoying, as I don't like having to reset my viewer settings several times a day.

 

Thanks.

When you ask a tech question include information about your computer and viewer. If the viewer will at least show the login screen, get the info from the viewer's Help-About... and paste that into your post with your question. Help->About... provides all the version numbers we need.  To add your info to an existing question use OPTIONS->EDIT. It’s in the upper right of your post.

It also helps to know if you are using a laptop or a desktop and a wired or wireless connection between the computer and gateway and/or between the gateway and ISP. T-Mobile and other ISP’s use a wireless system to connect to you.

Without information all we can do is guess. That means you have to try all our bad guesses and eliminate them one by one. This is easier for all of us, if you give us good information to start with.

==============

This can happen when permissions on your computer are messed up, generally a Windows thing. 

On Vista & Win7 & 8 you'll find your settings here: C:\Users\[win_login_id]\AppData\Roaming\Secondlife\user_settings\settings.xml

Get them set and then save a copy of the file. You can copy the saved file over the viewer's file, when it resets, until you get this figured out.

You haven't given us enough information to figure out why this happens. It is not a common problem so there is something unique in what you are doing or how you are set up.
