TFDConnection cannot find FDConnectionDefs.ini

[Carl Efird 0]

I had Delphi 11 and 12 installed.  To regain some disk space, I uninstalled Delphi 11. 

 

Now TFDConnection in Delphi 12 IDE cannot find any of the connection defined in FDConnectionDefs.ini even though FDConnectionDefs.ini is unchanged and in its original location. 

 

How do I fix this problem?

I was going to say, look in your "public documents" folder under Embarcadero\Studio\FireDAC (e.g. C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\FireDAC) to see if there are backups of the connection definitions.  But then I re-read your question and you said the .ini file is unchanged.

 

I guess I'd look in the Windows registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\FireDAC and make sure those paths and filenames look proper.
