Yes.. loading tab settings from file will override the settings in the registry.

Mystery solved (?)
So can I add color commands etc to the ini or is there some other work-around?
Maybe I can add all tab settings to the REG & forget the ini, or will that be over-ridden by last tab state?
(Maybe  can work with that tho.)

Since INI file are used override last state settings, So you always get the same settings on startup no matter what you done before you close.
And since customized tab color/name for a specific tab is a settings that belong to just that tab.. you need to insert that setting also in the ini file.

Ulfhednar:
Thanks mathias.
Could you tell what the syntax is for colours etc in the ini?
Do I just use ini lines like

--- Code: ---TabColorBk=#A70000
--- End code ---
etc
as I see in the reg keys?
e.g. -

--- Code: ---[PANEL_5]
Path=F:\
Side=L
SortCol=2
SortAsc=0
TabColorBk=#AAAAAA
TabColorText=#0D0D0D
TabColorGradient=1
TabColorHotWhenActive=1
--- End code ---

Just checking before I nuke all my settings again  ;D

Are the tab settings in the reg exported during a MC Config backup?
I see I can export a reg key (so I can backup the REG:\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MultiCommander\SessionHistory\a4c2985d9c7e4035a3221cfd600171d0\AutoLoad\) Which is the most easy solution if MC doesn't backup these entries.

OT
Is it possible to make a key value copyable, as with a normal text/filename entry & F2.  Just wondering...it may be potentially useful as an MC interface asset.

Merry Xmas.

Mathias (Author):
It should be the same name as you see in the registry. Try that.

And no, the values in the registry are not included in the backup since they are not settings, They are only there to remember current/last state.
