External merge tools don't retain it's settings when closing Fork

[Spac3Dementia]

In preferences\integration tab, under the External Merge Tools, the path and settings for the YAMLMerge is no retained when closing fork(hence can't be used unless you set up again).
I've tried this with Winmerge and has the same behaviour, so I'm guessing none of the external merge tools are retained; external diff tools on the other hand are retained well.

The way to reproduce it is: If you set up YAMLMerge (or other merge tool), then you close the preferences window then you open it again, everything is ok, but as soon as you close fork and open the preferences window, you'll notice you lost your configuration for the YAMLMerge and probably for other external merge tools as well.

This happens in recent 2.4.0.0 version, didn't happened in 2.3.1

I think the YAMLMerge is the only affected tool.

Thank you for the bug report. We will release a hotfix tomorrow

I just tried WinMerge and it worked for me. Can you double check, please?

[Spac3Dementia]

Hey Dan,

Happy to help. I have double checked and Winmerge doesn't get retained for me

I'm using W10 and an old version of Winmerge 2.16.8.0 which is 32bits btw, if that helps.

We released 2.4.2 hotfix, can you try if it works now?

[Spac3Dementia]

I have tried the hotfix and it worked, now both WinMerge and YAMLMerge gets retained when closing.

The "set as primary" also gets ratained (didn't work before).

Thank you Dan!
