Topic: Doesn't retrieve 'Save' settings

At least since v8 of this beautiful program, the settings on the 'Save' tab in the configuration are saved to registry or ultraiso.ini, but they never get retrieved when re-running the program. Could this please be fixed?

Do you mean that settings on the 'Save' table is lost when re-running UltraISO?
Posted by Guillaume on May 29 2008,07:32
Yeah, that's what I mean. But when I look in the registry or the ultraiso.ini, the right settings do get saved, the only problem is that they don't get retrieved and applied when re-running UltraIso. So everytime I start UltraIso, I need to re-apply my custom settings in this tab. Quite frustrating...

Please remove ultraiso.ini and try again.

PS: If ultraiso.ini exist, UltraISO will get settings from this file (system registry will be ignored). Please note that UltraISO NEVER change ultraiso.ini, you may export settings via 'Ctrl+Alt+E'.

I know that, but I tried it already. Also when I use the registry for the settings (no ultaiso.ini present) the problem occurs. Even tested it on several systems, both with and without use of ini-file.

My suggestion: Uninstall current version, download latest version UltraISO from < http://www.ezbsystems.com/ultraiso/download.htm > , setup it and try again.

Are you serious? As I said: this problem has been around since v8, on all the systems I've run it under all conditions. Have you even tried to replicate it yourself? It is a bug in the software, not some kind of random occurrence of which I'm the only one to experience it.

I'm not experiencing it.

This is when there is NO ultraiso.ini:
  • Open up the Configuration dialog and go to the 'Save' tab
  • For instance, uncheck 'Recompile...' and then uncheck 'Enable Super Restore' (for the example, just changing any setting in this tab will suffice)
  • Now close UltraISO and open it up again. You will see that the settings weren't restored properly

Tested extensively on multiple systems with multiple versions.

Good Day Guillaume,

I had this problem when I used UltraISO from a user account (with admin rights), But UltraISO had been installed from another Admin account....

I fixed it by re-installing it from the user account from which I wanted to use it (& installing it to the same directory as before)....

I Hope that helps,

Best wishes,

Roberta

Thanks for your reply, Roberta! Your suggestion didn't do the trick for me, though.

Can't anyone shine a light on this?

Sorry, we cannot reproduce this problem on all of our XP/Vista systems.
Posted by irso on Jul. 03 2008,11:10
Can you reproduce this? It happens if I press Ctrl+Alt+E in attempt to create ini file. Otherwise UISO loses the default media size.

Hello irso, thanks for your bug report. Please check your PM for an answer.

I'm afraid I'm not following the solution here... Is there a way to fix this with an entry in the INI file?

I am running Windows SBS Server 2008 and ran into this problem.   My solution applies to any version of Server 2008, and possibly to Vista versions.  If you are running with User Account Control "ON" then you need to right-click on the UltraISO icon and select "Run As Administrator" before trying to make changes to many of the settings.  The ones that bothered me ??? were:

  1. Changing the number of Virtual Drives
  2. Changing the currently assigned Virtual Drive letter
  3. File Integration settings

Hope this helps those having this same issue.

Similar problem as in the first post.
I've installed UltraISO (without virtual drive), then copied installed files to another location and then uninstalled the program.
After that i've run the prog, changed settings and made ultraiso.ini via Ctr+Alt+E. But each time i run the program it uses default settings for some options. E.g. it uses english language instead of correct saved in ini-file; default setting for shell integration. It seems that an error occurs after loading some values and program can't load others, so it just uses default values for those parameters.

My account has administrative privileges. Program version is 9.3.2.2656. OS - Windows XP SP3 Pro.
