Unable to save a configuration (.fcfg file)

Hello,

I have just started to use a FLIRC USB v2, and just installed the latest Flirc software on a PC with Windows 11.

All is fine excepting that I am unable to save my configuration.

I did the following:

1. "File" menu on the GUI

2. "Save Configuration"

3. "Save"

After that, nothing special appears (no error messages), the windows opened to save the config file is closed as soon as I click on "Save" and that's all.

The .fcfg file just seems to not have been created (I tried for example to save it on the desktop or in the "My Documents" folder and just nothing, no .fcfg file).

I searched on my whole hard drive (with *.fcfg) with no success, check if the check box "show hidden files" was ticked...

In the Windows protection suite, I gave permission to the different flirc exe files to access to the appropriated directories.

Do you have any idea?

Many thanks in advance

Thanks for letting me know. This looks like a new bug. Let me track it down quickly.

Thank you it works!

Nevertheless I have another question linked to my wish to save the configuration.

My wish was to be able to edit the .fcfg file in order to add specific keys like "[" (full keyboard configuration).

It seems that it's not possible?

I desperately tried with the GUI but probably don't know how to proceed.

I do not have a QWERTY keyboard but an AZERTY one. I don't know if that matters.

For example on the AZERTY keyboard, in order to get the '[' symbol, I need to press 'CTRL' + 'ALT' + '5' or 'ALT GR' + '5' (on the AZERTY keyboards there are 3 signs on some keys ; for example on the key with the '5' you also have '(' and '[').

I have to say that I also don't succeed to assigned to two different remote buttons, the two sign that you have on a single keyboard key (for example, for the key with the '5', in order to get the '5' I need to press on a 'Shift' key and the '5' key, else I get the '('). To say it in simplified way: how to assign signs/characters accessible with the 'Shift' key?

Thank you in advance!
