Have to enter nickname and select shared files everytime

2 posts in this topic

I've been using DC for a number of years from my university campus for a while now but ever since losing my external harddrive and downloading the latest version of dc on another portable device I've found that each time I enter the program it's like the first time I'm doing so; I have to enter a nickname and select the folders I'm sharing. Nothing ever gets saved, not my favorite hubs, users or anything else. It's like the slates been wiped clean.

I'm nt much of a pc genius so maybe there's something I shld hv clicked when I first installed dc.

Please help!

P.S. I almost always use a different computer each time I'm on campus. If I use the same one I used the day before for example, I don't have this problem.

In your case the settings are not saved on the portable device, if you used the installer to set up your copy it will (by default) save all settings tied to the windows user account. Use the slim binary download and you should be fine.
