This is embarrassing but I have a machine with v1.58 Server Edition on it and when I open BA I'd like it to automatically load my settings, and I dont know how to do it.

I only have one settings file on the machine but when I load up the settings section is blank and I need to manually load my preferred settings.

(everything works fine on my other machines, and I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly on the troublesome machine)

Thanks

If its anything like the problem I was having this morning, its due to not have a strong coffee before starting.

Lol

I've had plenty of the not-enough-coffee-yet problems, but I've been too ashamed to post this problem for a few weeks now, soI think it's something else.

The only issue is that I set up all my autos and then look away for a day and I get 1000 messages asking me to confirm the bets, which a) costs me lost profits and b) even worse, is a helluva pain to close all those pop ups!

Which folder is the settings file in?
Sounds like BA can't see it. I would guess it should be in
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Bet Angel\Bet Angel Professional

Thanks for your suggestion - but a) I think that the server edition has a different file structure (??) and b) I can find the correct settings via BA ("load settings" but I have to manually implement them- so they are probably in the right place

At the risk of stating the obvious have you selected the profile you want to use on the blue login window?

Obvious to some, some of the time!

That worked. Thank you very much
