Re: Program Config Window Chopped Off

Post by WB8ASI »

Terry, Took me awhile to find the config.json file. I found it in the User folder. When I copy it into the new LOG4OM2/User folder and open the program it has the same chopped off Program Config window. So it appears the problem is in my config file??? I'm away from my home QTH for several weeks where I just might have an old backup file with a uncorrupted config file somewhere. So unless you have any other ideas?????, I can live for now with my current limitations which the only problem is having a my backups being saved to my desktop until I get back home Otherwise if I'm brave enough to try a totally fresh reentry of my configurations. I'm thinking it wouldn't be too bad except for setting up the TQSL/LOTW connection. It seems everything is working just fine and my old configurations are still intact. It's just the darn Program Config screen window does not allow me to do anything. Please let me know if there are any other tricks to try and open that window, otherwise thank you much for walking me thru this. I'm a happy Log4OM user. Thanks, Herb WB8ASI

Herb,
You can open the config.json in Notepad and read your settings data so making a new set up is just a case of referring to the Jason file for passwords etc

Terry, Thanks for the tip on opening the a .json file with notepad. But better yet as a final update and good news ending to my problem..........I found my old config.json files in the Log4OM2/backup/historic folder. Guess I should have looked further at the start. It only took me 2 tries going back til I found a good one that worked full screen upon replacing it for my current config.json file in the User folder. So now I have everything back to normal. Learning more about this computer stuff everyday. Thanks again. 73, Herb WB8ASI
