@David I did not pay enough attention to this post

I don't know if this is something others are seeing, or just something weird on my system.
I see it twice, I didn't notice the one at the bottom of the list (it was out of sight because of window size), but when I change it there it seems to stick.

It would be good to get rid of that extra item in Preferences, especially as the spurious item is the one at the top of the list.

And where are the PI's preferences written - should there not be a DOCX Input.json file in the plugins folder?

@David - I'm going to install the version from post#1 into portable 1.48, I'll let you know what happens. I have a 'gut' feeling this might be an old problem.

@rebl - see first screen shot, when I changed the one at the bottom, the path to wordconv.exe seemed to persist.

Added - @David - I see DOC Input twice with original PI on 1.48 - same problems too. See 2nd attachment.

I did install this PI for a brief while, IIRC the actual conversions were not much better than RTF so I put it aside. And shortly thereafter Kovid released his DOCX which has given me sterling silver service ever since.
