I get the error message, "unable to open/create Prefs file", displayed in the message centre 4 times in a row when I open ABD.
It appears this is related to TF annotate tool settings, as I cannot alter and update any of these.Well, I can change and update, but once I close the annotate tool settings window and open again, all changes have been reset. Each time i try this, the same "unable to open/create Prefs file" message appears 4 times in a row in the message centre.
Why would this be occurring? It is not a permissions issue as I have looked into that already. All files appear to be editable and not read only.
ABD - 08.11.09.593
nevermind.
TFANNOTATION_OVERRIDES had a mis-spelled path in the config

An easy mistake to make. I rely on the Path Validator tool in Bentley Configuration Explorer to help me find this type of error when ever I make significant changes to a workspace. It will find both missing paths and missing files. It can save you much time and trouble, and its FREE!
