    From One Eye Willie@1:103/705 to All on Sat Sep 6 11:34:51 2025
    Whenever I try to load config from the control panel of sbss I now get a error msg saying error 2 executing "onf.exe C:\sbbs\ctrl".

    Any help out there to fix it? I see no such file. Thnaks in advance.

    What is onf.exe? I still have a backup of my Windows Synchronet setup, and I didn't have an onf.exe in my sbbs\ctrl directory. Also, I don't think there should be any executables in sbbs\ctrl.. That directory is for configuration files & data. So I'm wondering if onf.exe must have been a 3rd-party utility you got from somewhere else?

    Sounds like you changed File->Properties->Settings->Config Command. The default is "%sscfg.exe %s"
