[amsat-bb] KlaTrack [ Problem Saving Settings ]

[Chris Thompson]

Les, did you get it working?  I know Joe did.

Just for reference, nothing I write will require you to run it as
administrator.

It sounds like the program runs but the settings are not saved.  When you
ran it for the first time it popped up a window and said "data will be
stored in C:\Users\XXXX\KLATrack" where XXXX is your username.  Now it's
possible that was a different directory as the program asks the OS for your
home directory and it might return something different depending on how you
have things configured.  But look there and see if there is a directory.
It should contain two files, klatracker.properties and nasabare.txt

Let me know if those files are there.  The timestamp on the properties file
should change if you update the settings.  If that folder does not exist
then I would expect the program to crash rather than just act odd, but you
never know.
