Settings, plugins don't save. 2.0.10

Bug Reports and Fixes
1

Hi all,
I am having some problems after updating firmware where

  • all of the plugins are no longer auto loading on reboot. I am back to the stock collection each time.
  • any settings in the preferences folder like Sample Rate and block size are lost on reboot.
  • It loads the same patch everyone time on reboot, no matter where I was in my work.
  • this happens with a power down the rack off way, or a “reboot module” from the menu.

I have tried “return to Factory Defaults”
Re-installed 2.0.10
the problem persists.

I have not downgraded to a lower OS yet.

I have had the exact problem noted in your first bullet (but not the others) . A reformat of the SD card rectified mine.

That is easy to do!

Reformatting fixed most of the issues.

I still have the patch “Sloth Drone” loading every time I open Metamodule.
so weird.

I’ve been having this issue for a couple months now. Tried a full factory reset and SD card reformat…still didn’t fix the issue. Plugins and settings have to be manually reloaded every time…grrrr..

@danngreen any suggestions on how to prevent this issue?

Ok, that’s strange. A factory reset will re-format the internal drive.

See if you can do this, it might help illuminate the issue:
Set some plugins to preload, exit the Plugins tab (remember you have to go back to the Main Menu in order to save the plugin preload settings), and then reboot. Go to the Plugins page, and manually load one of the plugins that was supposed to preload. Then click on the plugin’s name again and see if the “Preload” checkbox is set or not. If it’s not set, then the settings file is not loading.
If it is set, then probably the SD or USB drive is not mounting fast enough after startup.

As for the settings not reloading, you mean things like the audio sample rate/blocksize, and display settings (gear icon on Module View and Patch View pages)?
