The config file "ultravnc.ini" was in the same folder as winvnc.exe
The new location is %programdata%ultravnc
The installer should copy the current ultravnc.ini to the new location... this file also contain the password.

Please check if the ultravnc.ini was proper copied

Found fallback wasn't working
If nothing is copied he should used the old location.

You can see the cascade in the settings->log

On the subject of using command line options to override the options.ini file... I don't think it is working right now.
Is there a list of command line options, in case I am not using the correct options?

I launch vncviewer.exe using two different batch files (based on which PCs I am connecting to).
One is:
vncviewer.exe /autoscaling /viewonly /encodings ultra2
and the other is:
vncviewer.exe /autoscaling /viewonly /encodings XZYW
I enter different IPs/names depending on which launch I am using.
Neither are starting in viewonly mode.
Both are connecting with the XZYW Encoding. That was the last encoding I set manually using the options button.

My thought would be that the program loads the options.ini file settings (getting all the settings) then for any valid option on the command line, the command line option would change or override the setting that was in the options.ini file.
