From time to time Screenshot Captor Fails

<< < (2/3) > >>

Contro:
First move trying.
I think I have screenshot captor as portable locating the configdir.ini with everything.
"// NEW:
//  You can now signify that an app should run in portable mode (no files saved to anything but app dir)
//  by specifying the uncommented line:
//   PORTABLE=TRUE"

Have I to remove the "//  " ?

Take a look where is located configdir.ini

I am taking screenshots with SC. The situation is really strange.
I will upload later.

TheScreenShotCaptor.ini located in Y:\PORTABLES\MULTIMEDIA\ScreenShotCaptor , seems corrupted.

At the present moment the screenshots are sent correctly to O:\PANTALLAZOS\2016\06.2016

But the folder is not well written in the ini files.

I think at least I have a bad configuration and corrupted files.

What can I do ?

Contro:
I think my main problem is a corrupted ini file : ScreenShotCaptor.ini in the portable folder.
Then the program create or go to a non portable folder in C:\Users\JOSE\Documents\DonationCoder\ScreenshotCaptor\ScreenshotCaptor.ini

I think my remedy may be :

Remove comment in line PORTABLE=TRUE
Delete corrupted ini file ScreenShotCaptor.ini in the portable folder and copy this : C:\Users\JOSE\Documents\DonationCoder\ScreenshotCaptor\ScreenshotCaptor.ini

Revise contents with in all moment SC closed.

Delete the folder C:\Users\JOSE\Documents\DonationCoder\ScreenshotCaptor

Contro:
I am doing and downloading the last version ask me when execute the portable .exe

Contro:
Have I to add the line
CONFIGDIR = .
in the configdir.ini file in the portable folder ?

Note : i have added the line.

So was a corrupted file and disconfiguration and not a bug.

Answer: YES. Removing // enables that line. Delete the quote " after TRUE. (How did that get in there?)

Answer: It might just be an older version of the ScreenShotCaptor.ini, so just replace it with a copy of ScreenShotCaptor.ini from a fresh install of SC, or find a valid one elsewhere - you may have a couple more on your disk.
You just need a valid ScreenShotCaptor.ini file in the SC app folder, that's all.

Answer: Yes. That ScreenshotCaptor.ini will probably be a good one. You probably don't need to tidy up and delete any folders elsewhere if you have enabled PORTABLE=TRUE in configdir.ini.  Do the housekeeping once you have it all working.

Answer: I think you probably don't need to install the portable version, but it won't hurt if you do.

Answer: Add it in if it's not there - if you want - but do NOT enable (uncomment) that line. You can/must only have 1 useful line enabled in configdir.ini. If you have enabled PORTABLE=TRUE (which sets the CONFIGDIR=the SC app folder as default) then that is all you need to do in configdir.ini
You should end up with these files in the SC app folder:

* ConfigDir.ini - just the one line changed in that.
* ScreenshotCaptor.ini  - with your latest settings.
* ScreenshotCaptorTools.ini - with your latest settings.______________________

After you have done all this, you will need to go through the SC Options and check/reset/verify all the settings. This will update ScreenshotCaptor.ini and ScreenshotCaptorTools.ini. Then, just to be paranoid, exit SC nicely and restart it. That will ensure that the settings are written out to those 2 .ini files. The settings will be (should be) persistent after that, until you next change them.

By the way, my experiment on my own SC settings worked fine and was uneventful.
