GIT failing after moving Goflight modules to different powered hub

in GoFlight Interface Tool - Technical Support
After replacing a powered hub, my GIT reported an error. I have deleted the GIT folder in Documents and also uninstalled, reinstalled GIT, rebooted, etc. Still getting the attached failure message. Most frustrating.

    That is very odd. Try renaming Documents\GoFlight Interface Tool so GIT starts up with a clean config.

    I did that. I was not clear enough in my note. When I said "deleted the GIT folder in Documents" that is what I meant. I dragged it out of the Documents folder and stored it elsewhere. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled all of GIT, starting the reinstall with a fresh download from your site. That is why I am baffled. Any other advice? I must say that the Goflight products and your software take much too much babysitting to keep them running. The GF46 and GFP8 are particularly unreliable. It is a gamble evry time I use my sim setup.

    OK, it looks like a corrupt settings file. Go to C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\PollyPot_Software and delete everything you find in there. AppData is a hidden directory so you will need to change your settings in Explorer to see it.

    I would expect your GF46 to be unreliable as all GoFlight gear with displays are very finicky about the USB connections and it takes a lot of work to get it stable. However your P8 should be rock solid and if it isn't you either have faulty hardware or serious USB issues.

    Best wishes

    Deleting everything in that location cured the issue. That is a very useful step to know as I have had corruption problems like this once before. Thanks.
