      Impossible to say if you show no code.

      Have you tried
      qDebug() << settings.fileName();

      to see if path still valid on windows?

      if you have something like
      QSettings settings("/home/petra/misc/myapp.ini")
      that could be the issue.

          seems ok. It does work on linux ?

          How do you initialize mainSettings ?

              Hi,

              I don't know if is a problem but why do you use / as key prefix??
              Windows writes settings in the Registry.

              Also I don't know why you use members objects for QSettings

              Once your problem is solved don't forget to:

              • Mark the thread as SOLVED using the Topic Tool menu
              • Vote up the answer(s) that helped you to solve the issue

                  Hi,

                  some suggestions:

                  1. Set Application Name and Organization name only once (in the main.cpp);
                  2. Create a QSettings instance when you need it; the destructor calls QSettings::sync() and all unsaved data will be saved.

                  Once your problem is solved don't forget to:

                  • Mark the thread as SOLVED using the Topic Tool menu
                  • Vote up the answer(s) that helped you to solve the issue
