[I] Settings are deleted after reset about qownnotes HOT 10 CLOSED

Open QT settings

Do you mean "QOwnNotes settings"?

Warning: "Removed database file: " "/Users/aaa/Library/Application Support/PBE/QOwnNotes/QOwnNotes.sqlite" (:0, )

That's not a message from QOwnNotes. Is anything else on your system deleting the file?

from qownnotes.

When I restart QOwnNotes after a change in settings a terminal window is opened. This is where the message is coming from, so I'd be surprised if it's unrelated to QOwnNotes

You can search for it in the source code yourself: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Apbek%2FQOwnNotes%20%22Removed%20database%20file%22&type=code

The same goes for everything after that warning ("Saving session..." and so on). That's not from QOwnNotes either...

Yep understood but it's a window that launched following me launching QOwnNotes. My guess is that it comes from a 3p library you import or related to how Mac handles the software.

There is no 3rd party library for macos I'm aware of.

OK so not sure what's going on. Great software, btw. Where are the settings stored?

It consistently happen were settings are deleted every time I make a settings change which require a reset

Thank you. 😉
You can see the path in the debug settings.
Currently there should only be two ways to reset the settings, with a CLI parameter and with a button in the general settings

I have exactly the same problem on an Apple M1 chip. When I change some settings in QOwnNotes the settings are deleted and I lose my current configuration.
