Problems with presets

Post by Phototaker »

I have 2 problems with pre-sets. The first was because some of the options I had chosen never seemed to be in the pre-set the next time I wished to use them. Even though I made choices before saving as a pre-set it never saved these options. Save as MKV,& always burn in subtitles.

Then I noticed that you had a new version so I upgraded to it but got the following error message that I don't underrstand. What do I need to do?

Unable to write to the presets file.
