Well, I guess that when you added Unicode support, it no longer became 'simple file settings'. You seem like a smart guy, I'm sure you could figure out some way to migrate to xml. ;-)

While were on this topic, I've one more idea. It would great if the 'options file' also saved the From/To folders ...

Options file saving 'Directory Exclude filter' in hex

I have about 30 different ExamDiff options files for comparing a number of different folders. They have rather elaborate 'Directory Exclude Filters'. I need to use ExamDiff to compare these options files, but because the data is in Hex, it isn't meaningful. It would be better if it were to save the ...

thanks.

Your correct. The remote folder existed at one time, but is no longer available (remote computer was turned off, etc). In my specific case, I use Exam Diff to update remote computers that I reach via a VPN. So not only is the computer not reachable, but the network is not reachable either when the ...

Locks up when invalid UNC folder compared

ExamDiff Pro v3.3 locks up when 'compare' window is shown with invalid UNC folder (e.g. \\BOGUS\MyShare). It doesn't even give me a chance to change the incorrect path; the programs locks up indefinetely and can't even be killed by TaskManager (Windows XP). Other than this problem, i've really ...
