unnamed items

Post by bill516 »

Just started happening in the last two days.

When I create a model and save it to my desktop (always put models I'm working on there) it saves correctly, but if I double click on the model to open from windows it starts Freecad but just lists a load of unnamed items in the combo box. However if I open the same model from the, file open or recent files it opens correctly and displays as it should. Dont know if it makes any difference but this model has loft items in it which I have never used before, got to admit I love the loft feature now I know how to use it.

I think I had a windows update a couple of days ago so wondering if it was something to do with that or if I have done something with Freecad itself.
Its not a problem having to open the file from within Freecad just bugs me that I cant do as I used to.

Restarted windows just to makes sure it wasnt something that had not set itself properly with the update but still the same.

Tried it with some files I had created prior to this happening and they opened as they should.

I may have found the problem. I found a rogue Freecad 18 lurking on another drive, I deleted that and the file opened up as normal in ver 19. I only found it by opening up a really old file and it showed as ver 18 so that lead me to look for ver 18. Windows didnt show it in the control panel uninstall
so I thought I had uninstalled it when installing ver 19
