Lost my Error and Watch views
Where does FreePIE store its own runtime configuration of open windows/panes? Somehow I've closed my Error and Watch views and can't get them back. Console is fine and comes back if I close it and use the menu item reopen it, but the other two won't reappear at all. I've tried reinstalling from most recent MSI.

Re: Lost my Error and Watch views
Sorry FrenchyKiel, the items in the View menu aren't working for the 'error' and 'watch' views - that's the problem. If I close 'console', I can reopen it with the console item in the view menu - but some time recently I closed the error and watch views, and the corresponding menu items for those don't have any effect. I'm looking for the location of the FreePIE's own persistent settings in order to reset this to default.

Re: Lost my Error and Watch views
Very strange... I renamed the config file, restarted FreePIE and all my panes came back. Unable to reproduce the behaviour I had before - all panes can be closed and reopened from the menu items now.
The original config that wasn't working:
