Hello, I am not the one that users this so don't know much of slick edit, this is just hopefully a quick question that someone can answer, as I am unable to get in contact with anyone at the actual company.
Slick Edit in use is SlickEdit Professional 2018 for Windows
My boss who uses slick edit said he spent about 2 hours yesterday adding a bunch of his own keywords into profile "DB2" ( I don't know if it matters but he said the language he uses is Dibol). After he was done he clicked ok and usually leaves his computer up and running over night, when he came back today, 5/15/2019 Wednesday, all applications where closed so he had to re-open it. When he did all of the keywords where gone.
He is fine with the fact that he has to re enter them all again, he just would like to know if there is anyway to prevent this from happening in the future.
He is on a new computer with automatic updates enabled. The fact that everything was closed when he came in this morning makes me think the computer restarted on its own and automatically updated, Patch Tuesday? Maybe he didn't save and that is why the keywords where gone?
But he showed me how he does it and after every keyword you need to apply the changes. So he showed me an example of adding one keyword, after adding it he closed without saving (because you need to apply the changes before it becomes a keyword) and restarted slickedit and the keyword he just entered was still there so I do not know.
Does anyone have any other ides as to why they where gone?
The only thing I thought of that might fix it is just change his automatic updates from automatically download/install to just automatically download and manually install.
