Any changes made in preferences disappear on restart

Open gitrekkt opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I have been using gnome-pie for many months now, and in that time it has worked great! However, there has been one issue that I have had and I can't seem to find anything about it online.

When I restart my computer or even just exit gnome-pie and open it again any changes I made to the preferences menu disappear and I have to reopen preferences and remake any changes again. This happens every time I either quit gnome-pie or restart my computer. I am on both Kali Linux (Debian) and Arch Linux and have been experiencing this issue on both. I installed gnome-pie using "sudo apt-get install gnome-pie".

How can this issue be fixed? Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

I was having the same issue on Manjaro KDE, this is what solved it for me:

  • Set Read/Write/Execute permission for all the files that gnome-pie saves settings to. chmod -R 777 /home/USERNAME/.config/gnome-pie

After changing the settings of gnome-pie, change some settings in gnome-pie THEN close the window (Don't kill the process). That's when the savings get saved to the files.
