Title: Macros all reset after closing Mach 3 - on latest Mach 3 version
Post by: Elemental_Garage on August 15, 2022, 08:20:37 PM

Hey all,

So I spent hours setting up my automatic probes to be just right, and finally got it all where I wanted. Then I shut down for the night, and when I started back up I noticed my probing jobs weren't working.

I used the Edit Button Script to look at the macros associated with the buttons to find that it reverted to all the old/default macros.

I am on version .062.

Before I spend another few hours doing this again, how can I ensure this doesn't happen again? I will back them up this time, but restoring macros every time I restart is not a great long-term solution. Anyone have any thoughts?

Unless you are using Windows XP, you will need to run MACH3 "as administrator".
