Restore from settings backup destroys custom directory paths

Hi Menion, once in a while I forget to exclude LM4 from Android updates, which leads to the non-AFA-Version starting from scratch - my fault. Now, uninstall LM4, install AFA, which recognizes the existing /Locus folder. So far so good.

However, what I do not understand is why all settings are gone. Can you pls. explain, maybe fix?

Not too big a problem, though, I have backups, and restore workd nicely for layouts, map manager etc.. BUT not for custom folders like mapsVector, SRTM and backup. The paths include weird additional, redundant information and as a consequence the restore fails those settings.

Pls. see attached.: one is the issue screenshot, the other where I have 2 out of 3 fixed, i.e. how it has been before my update handling error, and then after my manual corrections.

TXs and cheers

Michael
