When I upgraded my DisplayFusion Pro installation from 5.1.1 Beta ? to 6.0.0 Beta 1 some of my settings were lost. The ones I noticed that were gone were my hot keys and my window locations. It also got rid of the taskbar on the second monitor.

I used Windows system restore to go back to 5.1.1, but now DisplayFusion says something is wrong with the language file, and when I try to set it to En-US, I get an error box with the following:

Extra Keys found in this language file:
- formmain_strings_nvidiacheckprompt
- formmain_strings_nvidiacheckreboot
- frmsettings_options_btnrestorenvidiafiles
- frmsettings_strings_nvidiafilesrestored
- frmsettings_windowmanagement_chkalttabenabled
- frmsettings_windowmanagement_chkalttabshowdesktopwindow
- frmsettings_windowmanagement_chkalttabshowwindowtext
- frmsettings_windowmanagement_gbwindowmanagementalttab
- words_neveraskagain

ps I tried backing up the settings in 5.1.1, installing 6, then restoring the settings, but it didn't work

I had the same problem. It got to the point where Beta 6 wouldn't even display anymore and caused my computer to crash. Had to do a complete uninstall including settings and reinstall 5.1.1 again. Now I have to re-do all my settings.

I had no settings issue.

I backup my DF settings weekly. Didn't you guys have a backup?

I still have all of my settings after updating, but ALL of the settings are blank (e.g. no check-boxes are checked, pull-down menus are blank, no text input fields have text, nothing in the Window Location and Compatibility tabs is listed, etc.). I'm afraid that if I click "Apply" on the settings menu that all of my settings will be gone, so I can't really make any changes to test what would happen. Also, despite it saying that I have the Pro version, on the Window Location page, it says "Upgrade to DisplayFusion Pro to enable this feature!" at the bottom (yet all of my previously set rules [which aren't being listed] still works).

Hey all, we've just posted Beta 2, and this issue should be all fixed up. Note that after updating to Beta 2, you'll need to restore your settings backup. Here are the steps:
  • Update to Beta 2
  • On the Settings > Options tab, click the Restore Settings button
  • Select the backup file that has 5.9.9.101 in the file name

Sorry for the mess-up!
