Execute prevent re enabling after disabling

Post by wmmiller »

Working remotely I disabled execute prevent, saved settings, synced setting and uninstalled UVK. Ran UVK again on the same computer and execute prevent is enabled again. I’m not sure if this is a bug or I’m doing something incorrectly.

Bill

FYI: Execute prevent had previously been enabled on this computer.

Hi Bill.

It's not actually enabled. It's because it is enabled in your settings, imported from the cloud. Once you disable it, just ignore what's selected next time. I'll try to figure a way of preventing this from happening.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

That makes no sense in my brain. If I disabled it, save the settings and synced back to the cloud why it would be enabled in my cloud settings. I will give that some deep thought and wait and see what you come up with. :lol: Thanks Fred.

In that case it should not display enabled. I tested it. Here's what I did:
  1. Went to Execute prevent, selected Disable Execute prevent, clicked Save & Apply, and then confirmed.
  2. Went straight to the Options section, clicked Cloud sync, and then the first Upload now button, to sync settings to the cloud as they are.
  3. Closed UVK, then re-launched. Went to Execute Prevent and it sowed disabled, as it should.
Am I missing something?

Never mind, Bill. I just figured it out, and it was not related to cloud sync. Sorry about that. It'll be fixed in the next update. Thanks for reporting the bug.
