Lost FTP settings

Ask a Question

The other day I restarted WDisplay, and to my horror, my main WD display screen was corrupt, (i.e. reading not in the correct place, and graphs corrupt in position)and my ftp settings appear to have disappeared. I cannot understand why but it happened.
So the system is windows XP based, and I loaded the latest WDisplay release and installed that which appears to have corrected my main screen corruption, however I still have no ftp settings.
Now I have backups, but I don’t know which files to recover and which directory to restore them to.
So question 1:
Which file do I need to recover to restore my ftp settings, and where do I restore it to, i.e which directory(Win XP)?

Question 2
I know you could previously edit the position of items on the main display page, so for example move the text on the display, but I have forgotten how to do this, can you help please?
Appreciate your help on the above.
Thanks

The FAQ section of the forum is a wonderful thing: Recovering Weather Display Configuration :wink:

Thanks for your reply, I did try resolving it through the FAQ, but of course each question can try to address differing problems.
If the suggestion is that replacing wdisplay.ini will provide me with my lost ftp settings, I’ll give it a go.
If that is correct, what is wdisplayftp.reg used for?
I’ll go with your suggestion and give it a go, thanks.

the ftp/internet settings are in the wdisplayftp.reg file
double click a back up of that to reload
(when WD is not running)
