[Fixed] Data\settings\ClamWin.conf vs. App\DefaultData\settings\ClamWin.conf
When you change a setting, it's stored in the former location.
But every once in a while, my settings are lost. Does it mean they're reverted from the latter location?

I installed the latest version of CWP 0.96.4 and when I tried to update it cant connect to the server. Reinstalled 0.96.2.1 and it updated fine, Redownloaded and udgraded to 0.96.4 again, tried update, again can't connect error. I have reverted to 0.96.2.1 again.
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know a solution?
Upstream feature request found at: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3105510&group_id=95013&...
This is a feature request for better integration of KeePass Portable ( https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/keepass_portable ) and Texter Portable ( https://portableapps.com/node/11078 ) within Windows (systeminfo of Windows XP found below).
For no apparent reason, KeePass Portable 1.18 opened with all settings reverted to default (after I've used it successfully many times).
It's easy enough to open the primary database manually so I can use the app, but how can I restore the preference settings? Reinstalling KeePass doesn't help.
I know this can be done by having the .kdb file in the same location as the KeePass executable but I was wondering if there is a way to do this with the file in a different location? I have mine in a different directory to make backups easier but I still would like KeePass to launch and open the file simultaneously. Is that possible in the portable version?
KeePass 1.18 is out for a few weeks now. When will the PortableApps version be upgraded from 1.17 to 1.18?
Cheers,

I just installed the latest version 0.96.2.1 and i still get the Error FFFF message when ever i try saving an update report.
It might have something to do with the fact that when ever i go into the preferences all the directories are blank unless i put the cursor in the blank space and move it around, then the directory appears.
Is there something wrong with the relative paths or something?

I just updated from 96.1 to 96.2.1
I was happy to see that \Data\settings files were maintained
But
all the files in \Data\db were wiped out:
main.cvd
daily.cld
bytecode.cvd
mirrors.dat
during the update [and before the program was actually run].
Fortunately I had a copy of those files and restored them before running the program. Upon launch everything ran fine.
I THOUGHT you said after the last update, when there was a significant change in CW, that the installer would only do this if you were upgrading a version earlier than 96.1 or something like that.
After a failed DB definition update at work (probably corporate firewall related) I read the error message. At the end of the failed connection attempts I got to this
Giving up on database.clamav.net...
Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in c:\users\\appdata\local\temp\tmpcbjuy5 is working. Check http://www.clamav.net/support/mirror-problem for possible reasons.

Okay, strangeness abounds.
I installed the suite on my new USB HD, and just for fun thought I'd run CWP, updated the defs as it said since it was the first time running, then started scanning the USB drive, my McAfee picked up the temp files as a trojan, but I know the reason for that after looking through this forum (thanks for that answer)
But then I thought I'd scan the processes in memory... And CWP picked up itself, twice as a trojan, some generic one or other.
