(SOLVED) Two scenes reappear after closing them

SOLUTION: (SOLVED) Two scenes reappear after closing them - #6 by ZeroX4

Okay, so whenever I close GDevelop, and then reopen it, these two scenes reappear in the upper bar.

When I click the Xs on both of them and their events sheet, and then exit the software…

The scenes come back!

And when I open a different scene, and then close the software…

The new scenes are closed!

It does this everytime I reopen Gdevelop! It’s really frustarating…

1 - do you save before closing?
2 - check if your json file is not set to read only
3 - Try to recreate issue with new project

[takratzer]

1. Yes, I saved before closing, and it still does it.
2. No, it’s not set to read only.
3. When I made a new project, and closed the software, and reopened it, it pulled up the old project, and pulled up the scenes that kept popping up.

Should I uninstall and Reinstall Gdevelop?

Wort a shot
Maybe file that stores gdevelop settings is on read only

If you have no settings you regret loosing like hotkeys
Then you can open any folder type %appdata% and hit enter

Delete Gdevelop 5 folder and now install gdevelop

okay, I just noticed:

When I turn off the preference to having it automatically open the project I last edited, and then close it, and go back, it still reopens the projects, and the prefrence option was set back to true.

Can you guide me on how to do the %appdata% thing you suggested?

[ZeroX4]

1 - close gdevelop
2 - open any folder

3 - in address bar type %appdata% and hit enter

4 - In your case just delete Gdevelop 5 folder

6 - now just install gdevelop again
That is all

this won’t screw up my Gdevelop Project, will it?

[takratzer]

okay, I did it, and it worked! Thank you!

You already know but im replying in case someone else ever gonna read it and will be worried

NO it will not
And you never should have projects inside your gdevelop folder
