Default Settings not used for ne Session

[CWempe]

When I open a new session via command line (kitty username@servername or via ssh:// link) , it starts with the default settings (Font, size, etc.)

So I expected I could change the default settings in my Session/Default%20Settings.ktx file. Most important would be to change the default Font.

But his did not work. 😞 I checked the correct path by creating a new file with the defaultsettings=yes option.

Is this file not read when a new session is started?

I also tried editing keys in \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\9bis.com\KiTTY\Sessions\Default%20Settings. No effect.

How can I change the default settings then?

My setup:

• WIn10
• Kitty 0.74.4.13
  • installed via Chocolatey
  • portable mode
  • importand paths:
    • "C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\kitty\tools\kitty.exe"
    • "C:\Users\cwempe\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\kitty\tools\Sessions\Default%20Settings.ktx"
    • "C:\Users\cwempe\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\kitty\tools\kitty.ini"

I know it looks strange that the exe and the Settings are in completely different path, but my session files work fine so far. Seems to a a Chocolatey thing.
