I was sure I read a while ago that these settings were library specific?

I loaded a cloned library, turned off the watched folders option, removed all the watched folders and exclusions from the list, restarted MC, went back to the default library, and find the watched folder settings made in the cloned library have been passed on to the default library too.

If they're not library specific, they really should be, don't you think?

-marko.

I don't use the default library, i always create a Library name, i have found in the past using the "Default" library can create problems when MC runs into a problem.
 
I however can not recreate the problem your having.

They should be library specific, and stored here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 12\Library Specific

So, I went there, and there were three keys. I removed them all.
I restarted MC, reset all the watch folders on the default library, took the tick out of 'enable watch folders' and closed MC.

The new key under library specific was created, with WATCH 1, WATCH 2, etc. etc. values.

I load up a test library, check the watch folder settings and find that they're mirrored from the default library.
I remove all the watched folders.
I close MC.

There is still only only one entry under 'library specific', and all the WATCH values have been removed, leaving just the task settings.

Upon reloading the default library, there is still only one entry under library specific, and there are no folders in the watched folders list.

If I tick the 'enable watched folders' option, all of the above stays the same, except that a whole load of files I don't want get auto-imported into the test library. The test library in question is a clone of the default library, if that's any help.

It's about the same time as messing around with these two libraries that I found the persistant "Start" entry in the tree, and while there, I noted that the "Features" registry key has a "Start" DWORD listed with a value of zero, but it still shows up in the tree.

The above tests were made using build .74

Thanks for reporting this - it'll be fixed in the 12.0.77 build.
