Operating System / Platform

🪟️ Windows

Operating system architecture

x64 (64-bit Intel/AMD)

Electron version

v30.0.2

Application version

v4.9.0

Bug description

Launching WebCord v4.9.0 resets the values in config.json (AppData/Roaming/WebCord/config.json) back to default values. Happens in all cases: a) upgrading from v4.8.0 b) deleting AppData/Roaming/WebCord beforehand c) when running in a clean windows 10 sandbox.

Steps to reproduce:

  • run webcord.exe
  • open settings, tick "Hide menu bar automatically"
  • close webcord completely (also quit in tray) and restart, or just go File > Relaunch
  • Menu bar is visible again, opening settings reveals unticked checkbox
