Hello hello.So I have different computers and they use different kind settings because hardware.One drive changes ini-files names like Fallout4-computer name.ini Well, this is not okay. These ini-files are in OneDrive - Personal/Documents/My Games-folder, where steam puts them.How to keep My Documents syncing, and still keep my game preference files named as they should be?I know people have same kind problems with different games, but I haven't found answer yet.

Snippet C#: INI Files

GetSections() will return a string[] of section names. If you want the values too, just do a for or for loop to enumerate them. For example:

Code: foreach (string section in ini.GetSections()) { Console.WriteLine("[" + section + "]"); foreach (string key in ini[section].GetKeys()) Console.WriteLine(key + "=" + ini[section][key]); Console.WriteLine(); }[/quote]

 

Windows Defender and .ini files

We ae using Windows 10 and Windows Defender antivirus.

When our program saves information to an .ini file - it can take a very long time. It takes more than 4 times longer with Windows Defender than with other anti-virus programs (ex AVG, Avast). If we exclude the .ini file from Windows Defender - it also is
OK. BUT if this .ini file is included in the antivirus to be checked a certain part of this file (We have narrowed down the section) can take 4 times longer to save to the .ini with Windows Defender only.

What could be the cause of this? What kind of .ini action would cause this? No other antivirus causes this to happen.

Any suggestions - other than excluding this file from Windows Defender?
