No, I just posted an exe to replace the one you have. It's not a new installation...

Should I uninstall V7.2 Build 0?

Yes, Do not use Open Project. Use the recent project list to open your project.
 

Well, I just made 4 new .pjt files for my programs and I didn't use the FILE > SAVE PROJECT AS to save them. I use the Disk icon on each. Now I go back and try to load those four files usng the Recent Files and, guess what, they are all blank once again. Fortunately, I only have a few entries to make in InnoScript to produce the .iss file so it only takes me about 10-20 minutes to do everything all over again.  
 
I guess I am still doing something wrong. I will have to carefully set up the .pjt files (after I erase the current ones) and see what happens. I will definitely not be using the FILE > SAVE PROJECT AS.  I will make a brand new file for each of the four and see what happens. Wish me luck

No, If no changes are made to the script there should be no reason to ask if you want to save the project.

Amazing  
 
I am not a nut case. Man, that was keeping up at night thinking about it. So this morning about 3:30AM when I woke up thinking about it and couldn't get back to sleep I ran a number of test cases to see what was what.  
 
I am glad the the problem has been solved and that the next version will incorporate a patch. Now that I understand how it works I will take extra special care when working with it.
 
Oh, yes, one other things. There have been times when I have run InnoScript, saved the file using the disk icon and the exited the program. Most times the program will ask, before closing, Save Project. But I believe it is the strange events I found that cause the program not to ask Save Project before closing. Is the asking before closing something that is done even if you just save the project or not, i.e. should the Save Project always appear when you shut down InnoScript?

See, you are a wise old man after all!!! That was indeed the problem. It is a procedure we have never done in that order. It is fixed for the next release.
 
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

I will look into that... We use InnoScript all the time for all our software and have never seen that. We create new project all the time. I will let you know.

Ok, I believe I have finally figured out what the problem is. You HAVE TO USE the small disk icon to save the file. You DO NOT USE the FILE > SAVE PROJECT AS! If you do then this causes the .pjt file to be saved as BLANK!

I open InnoScript, start a new project, name it test. Select the .vbp I want to use and immediately save the project. I then exit InnoScript and re-start it. I select test.pjt to open. It opens as a blank file, i.e. the .vbp to use is not there.
 
I must be doing something wrong as I cannot always create a new .pjt file, save it, exit InnoScript, re-start InnoScript, open the file I just saved and have the save version. I have tried this many times and maybe 1 out of 20 time I do get the same file back.
 
I have tried this several times and the vast majority of times when I read the file back in is blank. Since I use the SAVE PROJECT AS why would it not save the file?
 
It seems that if I use the OPEN PROJECT and select the file it is different than if I use the 'Recent Files' list. When you go to re-open a file you save which method should be used, the OEPN PROJECT or the RECENT FILES?
 
Showld I have someone watch me while I create and save a project to see what I am doing and to see if they can save and recover a file?
 
Is there a difference between SAVE SYSTEM SETTING and SAVE PROJECT AS?
