Description

Thank you for reporting an issue.

Before reporting a bug, please make sure that you are running the latest version.
You can get the latest version number from CHANGELOG.md

Please try to fill in as much of the template below as you're able.

  • What happened?
  • Path of building loads and my directory where builds are saved is not the default. The build save path needs to be re entered everytime PoB is loaded. Saving in the options menu does not save. I have reinstalled multiple times to no avail.
  • What were you trying to do?
  • What steps will reproduce the bug?
  • Does it reproduce every time?
  • Yes
  • Provide a build code:
    Always provide a build code that exhibits the bug you want to report, even if it is not specific to a particular build. This helps us greatly to reproduce bugs faster. Otherwise, we will have to ask you for the code first before investigating, which would delay any possible fixes.
  • Screenshots:
    If you receive an error or experience graphical bugs, include one or multiple screenshots. GIFs or short videos are also okay, if the bug cannot be displayed in a still image.

Research direction

Check CHANGELOG.md first to confirm the reported version, then reproduce the issue by setting a non-default build save path in the options menu and restarting Path of Building. Done means the selected path is still present after reopening the application and builds are saved there.
