Can I stop the 'Synchronise' popup?

Anmeldedatum: 19.10.2021 Beiträge: 8

When I exit the desktop app I do not want to see the 'Attention' prompt to Synchronise. I just want to exit the app without having to select 'Exit'.

The reason for this is that I accidently selected 'Synchronise' and MyPhoneExplorer wiped all my contacts from my phone. I had to re-create them all from scratch.

This forum doesn't seem to allow me to add a photo of the prompt but can I stop this prompt appearing?

Input

Code:

NoSyncOnExit=1

in the general.ini under [Main] area

Thank you @icke1954.

I copied and pasted your NoSyncOnExit=1 code into the General.ini file and saved it but it has made no difference. I still see the pop-up when I exit the MyPhoneExplorer Windows desktop program/app.

I have no idea why this doesn't work for you?!

Either you made the entry in the wrong general.ini or entered it incorrectly?!
The entry must be made in the [Main] area!

Windows File Explorer 'Search' finds only one general.ini file and it is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\MyPhoneExplorer folder so I do not think I could have edited the wrong file.

I used Windows Notepad to edit and save the file.

When you say [Main] area I think you mean the large text entering area. In my general.ini file this area was empty of any text so I copied and pasted your text code (so I could not have entered it incorrectly) into the blank area. Does this sound correct?

If I could upload a photo I could show you but this forum does not allow this.

This is 100% the wrong general.ini Wink

The general.ini is located in your MPE database folder

If you haven't changed the default path, you can find it as follows:
-Windows Start Menu (Run) => input %appdata%\myphoneexplorer
otherwise
- See MPE => F2 => Advanced 2 => Database
Open [Database]\MyPhoneExplorer

I followed your instructions and found the other general.ini file in folder C:\Users\Ken\AppData\Roaming\myphoneexplorer .

I saw that it was populated already with data so I added your text code NoSyncOnExit=1 at the bottom of the list and saved the change.

I restarted my computer but the 'Synchronise' popup still appears when I close the app. Sad

Now the third time the hint:
The entry must be made in the [Main] area!
I.e. usually this is line 2

Thank you for your help. It would have been a lot easier if the forum allowed photos to be uploaded but I finally understood that the code must be the first line underneath the [Main] text. The first two lines of the general.ini file now show as follows: -

[Main]
NoSyncOnExit=1

And that worked. I appreciate your patience with me and I hope it helps others as well.
