Presets are reset to the default on version update about audiobookconverter HOT 4 CLOSED

Thank you for the feedback. Not sure how many users are affected by this behavior or feeling a need to change it.

Below is my use case and the motivation:
I have a profile for each bitrate that I'm interested in. My typical profiles include at least the following: 64 kbps, 80 kbps, 96 kbps, 128 kbps, 192 kbps, 256 kbps, 320 kbps. So, each time I update the application I have to manually re-create these profiles and remove the default ones (because the list with profiles becomes too long to navigate).

I believe this is a rare use case and the majority of users don't need this kind of complexity with multiple profiles.

Fixed. Will be released in next version

Hi,
Thank you for feedback.
This is not really a bug, but intentional behaviour:
I wanted to have freedom to change settings format w/o complex migration from version to version.
Also, there used to be issues with settings in the past, so migration to new version allowed user to "restore" program.

I would treat this as "feature request", maybe alternative is to keep settings if there is no braking changes, but reset if changes are significant.

I probably will go for keeping settings between versions, in case there will be breaking changes (which is unlikely in near future) - you will need to re-work.
