CAREFUL! VoiceAttack hasn't saved changes
Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2016 7:36 pm
I have just upgraded Voiceattack to 1.6 and am extremely fascinated by it. Have a nice extended profile there for the most important functions and some text macros. For some reason, keyboard toggle wouldn't trigger, but that is another topic. An excellent piece of software that!
Today, I spent around two hours of customizing commands in the already existing profile, setting command strings and so forth. All fine and well. Now I log into my computer, start Voice Attack, and all recent changes are just pretty simply gone.
UPDATE:
I had exported my profile to save the day's work and YAY, the changes now show up there.
It seems that VA deletes the edited profile when you change the privileges (Run As Administrator to Normal and vice versa). Same seems to apply for the VA backup files, so be careful!
Submitted a support request on the forums but wanted to let you know.
Advice: ALWAYS back up your VA profile after heavy changing.
