[Services] & [Services2]

[diorser]

I have noticed that [services] & [services2] sections are created in different NLite configuration files.

What is the difference between both of them ?

Thanks.

[services] lists all the services u removed.

for teh remaining services [services2] show if u changed how any of the services start. for example, u can leave them at default or change them to Disabled, Manual or Automatic.

Well, does not seem to reflect the reality of some past configuration files;

=> would need some confirmation if possible.

With Nlite 1.2RC, I have a [services2] section for modified services, but no [services] section anymore for removed services.

My confusion comes from this observation; then bug or not ?

Apparently, [services] section is only read&saved in Last Session.ini file, but cannot be saved in any other configuration file.

[services2] section does not behave the same, and preset can be saved in any other configuration file.

May be something to do with this error:

I confirm there is no more [services] section, but only [services2] section with Nlite 1.2RC.

Removed services are in [Components] section.

Bug or not ? Don't know. Needs confirmation.

[Ver Greeneyes]

Well, if nLite works correctly with the Last Session.ini then nuhi probably just changed how nLite writes and parses said file, and it's not a bug. (however, leaving the other section named Services2 might be confusing)

When do you get that error message though?

[diorser]

I don't get any error with this, but did not understand why some settings were not taken into consideration and some others just sometimes.

From one NLite release to others, pre-settings should be 100% checked to avoid surprises at the end of the process.

Status with 1.2RC:

[services] section does not exist anymore; removed services are now in [components] sections

[services2] section only contains modified service settings.

Good to know.

[nuhi]

Removed services were always part of Components, [services2] is replacement for [services] just so it doesn't load your old settings because of new Default state.
