Bob,

Have you configured Windows Explorer to display hidden files and
directories?  AppData is, by default, hidden.

Thanks.  You may be on the right track but I'm not sure.

I did accept the defaults on installation.  WL is installed in C:\program
files(x86)\Writelog\Programs

Data files are in C:\Users\username\documents\writelog\

File structure appears the same as it was with V11 which was installed
using defaults.

WL V12 appears to work as it should on first test.

Back to the add-on.........

In Wayne's installation note I see the following:

*"Where are the settings stored? I can't find them in writelog.ini.

They are not in writelog.ini. The WriteLogRunMode uses Microsoft's .NET
technology to store its settings, and that framework places its settings
here by default on Windows 7:

C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\WriteLog_Contesting_Softw"*

I am wondering whether this provides a clue?

In C:\Users\username\  there is no AppData folder but there again I am
using V10 and Wayne's note refers to W7 so I don't know whether to expect
to see an AppData folder or not.

I have to admit that other than following the instructions I can't think
of any other useful advice. I too am using a Win10 environment. The only
other issue might be where you have WL installed. before I used to install
in a seperate C:\HAM\writelog folder but I blieve the recent wisdom is to
use the defaults. Unfortunatly I have been trying to find this info written
somewhere but have come up empty-handed.

The more i think about it the more I suspect this is the problem. That WL
is not installed (programme and data files) where it is expected.

I will continue to search to find this in a documented format.
