Title: Electrum change GUI
Post by: xnc on March 04, 2013, 06:01:38 PM
I had an old version of Electrum. I was trying it and i switched the GUI from the default to gtk (or something like that).
Now when I start Electrum it does not work any more.
I tried to intall the last version but the problem is still there.
I then run Electrum with the command "-g qt" and it works!
I don't want to use that command so is there a registry key or soomething like that that I have to change to change the GUI?

THank you.

"it does not work anymore" is not an error description.

It's like calling your doctor on the phone and telling him "Good doctor, it hurts when I do this." "Do what?" "When I do that." "What ARE you doing?" "Please stop making me do it, it hurts!"

As a temp. workaround, you can create a desktop shortcut with the "-g qt" parameter. Or just try to switch to lite gui and back. Maybe the new settings will be saved. You can also contact the Electrum devs. on IRC - #electrum @freenode

As Deafboy said, use that to overwrite your config file. Or delete your config file and electrum will re create one for you.
