Hi all,
Every once in a while, when I start Godot, it tells me I have no projects. After doing a new scan and opening a project, all my editor settings have been reset to defaults.
Anyone have this happen?
Any solutions?

That happened to me once, but I never figured out why.

That's never happened to me.

These are the file paths for Godot's settings:
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/io/data_paths.html#editor-data-paths

I suggest keeping those files backed up, and when Godot says you have no projects, compare the current files with the most recent backup, and see what the differences are.

On Linux, I use BackInTime, scheduled to run hourly, and include those files in the backups.
