User forums > Using Code::Blocks

Saving my Editor settings can't be saved

<< < (2/2)

amirteymuri:
Inside the directory ~./config/codeblocks there is a file default.config but no default.ini, are these the same?
And yes this file could only be changed as sudo. If i run codeblocks as sudo everytime my settings are saved, but if i run codeblocks without sudo the default settings are shown. Is there not a way to just simply change settings (such as themes and the running terminal) and have these back every time i run codeblcks?

Jenna:
Make sure you have access to your  config-folder.

Do not run Code::Blocks (or any other program) with sudo unless you know exactly what you do.

If you run Code::Blocks with sudo, you run it as root and the settings are taken from and saved to "/root/.config/codeblocks".

Make sure that "~/.config/codeblocks" and all containing files are owned by you and a groupyou belong to (normally a group with the same name as the user).
