qSynth 0.3.6 Windows Crashing on launch
14 June, 2016 - 18:41 — Gutawer
Hello,
I have been using qSynth (from the installer on the sourceforge page) for a while now, and recently I changed a setting by accident. This caused the program to crash, and it has been crashing on launch ever since, meaning I cannot access the application. I have looked this up, and have found the location of the config file on linux, $HOME/.config/rncbc.org/Qsynth.conf . However, I have no idea where to find this file on windows (I have looked in %APPDATA% among other obvious places), so I cannot reset the settings to the default and get the program working again.
Thanks in advance :)

re. qSynth 0.3.6 Windows Crashing on launch
i believe that on windows the configuration is kept on the registry (and not on ~/.config/rncbc.org/Qsynth.conf file, as on *nix systems).
so try firing up regedit (or whatever it's the system registry editor utility nowadays) and search for "rncbc.org"/"Qsynth"; there you either turn or remove the offending setting out if you know what is, or just rip the "Qsynth" sub-tree branch off, as far to start/run qsynth.exe from scratch.
hth.
cheers
Thank you, that worked!
Thank you, that worked!
Found the location
Had the same issue and got it working. Here is the folder in registry to delete for future reference:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\rncbc.org\Qsynth
