Litestep is not remembering my themes when I restart my system, anyone else having this problem?

how come?

uuuuhhhhmmmm, I don't really know, hence the reason I'm posting the problem.

define "not remembering my themes"

LOL@Egonz

by not remembering my themes, I mean that when I use LSDS to switch my theme to Noir for instance, I restart my computer and litestep loads with the simple theme running and not the one I had shut down with.

weird...

before you shut down, check your step.rc (i mean the main step.rc, the one in litestepdir). what's in there?

rcStep "step.rc"; Added by LSTS
dirTheme "$LitestepDir$themes\simplicity\"; Added by LSTS
include "$dirTheme$$rcStep$" ; Added by LSTS

Just updated my litestep to latest version... still having the problem.

but what does it read just after you switch your theme?

just changed my theme using LSTS and the step.rc file still reads the same thing:

rcStep "step.rc"; Added by LSTS
dirTheme "$LitestepDir$themes\simplicity\"; Added by LSTS
include "$dirTheme$$rcStep$" ; Added by LSTS

that tells me that LSTS is not in the $LiteStepDir$

The "include" line is expanded to

include "$LitestepDir$themes\simplicitystep.rc"

which obviously won't work. That's not the solution for your problem though. :P

according to my file manager LSTS.exe is in my main litestep directory.

ilmcuts... I don't understand should I add that code somewhere?

What I meant is that there should be a trailing backslash in your dirTheme line, like this:

dirTheme "$LitestepDir$themes\simplicity\"

But as I said, that will most likely NOT fix the original problem.

only other thing I can think of is that your step.rc is set to read-only or something. If it is not try moving your LiteStep folder and reinstalling. Then copy themes over and see if it works.
