TSI keeps disappearing in the Default Settings/Controller

It's the weirdest thing. When I save to the desktop no problem, the mapping stays put. However when I export to the Default Settings/ Controller where all my mappings are it disappears! I made the folder called it KORG because it didn't exist and put my Korg mappings in there. Two of them that I downloaded from someone else, seem to live quite happily but mine might stay there briefly but soon it disappear. The odd thing is though I don't think it deletes it. Sometimes I can get it showing in the Device Setup of the Controller Manager. Any ideas?!

    That's a good idea with the folder, if the tsi file is named correctly you can also put them directly in the settings folder and will find it quickly anyway.

    Hello,

    i guess you are on windows, have you tried to check the ownership/rights of the folders, or set it like here: https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/take-ownership-folder-windows-10-using-file-explorer

    Hey @Uwe303 thanks for always being there! It is a Mac Pro M1Monterey. I never had this problem on previous Macs but I will check out what you are saying maybe there is a new permissions thing going on in this version. A click on the file shows I do have permission to write to it but maybe it is somewhere else but I am not sure where else it would be.

    Have you checked the permissions for the folder where you want to put the tsi file in?

    Is it the picture I posted above, if so yes it seems fine?

    Maybe put your KORG folder up one branch, instead of in \Settings\Default Settings just place them in \Settings. I have no idea if this really helps, but the Default Settings folder is used inside Traktor as a fixed menu to locate the standard mapping solutions for 3rd party devices. Maybe Traktor updates the content and structure of this folder unannounced.
