I would launch BRU, & manually make the changes I prefer as defaults.
At least make sure 12Filter=* and check the 12Files, etc (whatever else you want defaults to be)
Once done, while in BRU: click File/SaveAs, & take note of the DirPath\Name before clicking save.
From there you should be OK!
It should create a new .bru settings-file AND modify the .ini-line (tells BRU where to find it)
Sometimes the .ini-line fails to update, but you can always manually edit that line, the format is:
Favourite Path="C:\My Apps\BRU\Whatever.bru"
Right now, you have no .bru settings-file and a blank 'FavPath' line that doesnt point-to-it anyways.
While the above fixes this, it relies on being able to create the .bru settings-file, the pointer is easy.
If for any reason that fails, please post the error message.
The only folder you should have to deal with is where you found the .ini file
Just verify that BRU, *.ini, and *.bru all reside within that same directory to make it easy
You might want to check-out the desktop shortcut? Make sure its not pointing to an uninstalled BRU?
(You could delete it & create a new one by right-click-dragging the new BRU to the desktop.)
Sounds like you did everything right, 1st uninstalling & then installing, hard to say what went wrong.
Sorry, I dont mean to make it sound complicated, its really just 2-steps:
1st you create the .bru settings-file, & then make sure your .ini points-to-it.
