Been trying to use it on win10, but even after a restart no settings are saved at all (using the optimal settings).

win10 home 64 bit : tcp optimizer settiings not saving

Post by Question »

Ran it as administrator, tried to save the optimal settings, rebooted, and everything is still at default (congestion control provider is blank, etc). Tried ticking "save log" but the program doesnt say where the logs are saved, so it doesnt help...

Try to put the exe on your Desktop, the log/backups should be saved in the same location as the program.

Are you running it as an administrator? (right-click > Properties > Compatibility > Run as administrator)

Also note that some of the settings may not be read at startup.

Yes im running it as administrator.

Every time i open the program, it -always- shows the defaults, e.g. checksum offloading is always blank. Every time I try to save the optimal settings, it does not appear to save at all. Is this a win10 issue or something?

I found the log file, heres what it says after I tried saving the optimal settings :

I tried redownloading the latest version from the site and it appears to be fixed now. I think I had an older version.
