Hi there,
nothing really serious ... just as info.
Having a look into Tools/Options/Synchronisation, to see what the options for direct sync look like, without changing anything, click on OK, brings up the message, that changes will be applied after restart only.
So this message is irritating.
Even more, when, before click on ok, going to another options section (say: backup), doing a backup there, then click on ok there, the message comes up as well.
In my opinion, the message is needed only, if there really were changes.
Thanks

Changing something in Tools/Options/Synchronisation (v11.5 beta2) doesnot display any message anymore, when leaving options.
No message at all!

Sorry, I'm not quite getting that. What kind of message would you expect to see?

Re: Message in Tools/Options/Synchronisation seems odd
Until yesterday, everytime you change setting of syncentries a popup came to inform, that changes only take place after restarting EPIM.
Now this message is gone and you don't know which behaviour EPIM will have on next syncing...

Well, it's clear what message is expected by reading beginning of thread.

There will be no message displayed if a restart is not required.
