- There is also a bug in the desktop application if you tried that. Again, it will be fixed in the next release.
- The problem affects all affiliates and FNAC is not handled differently in how it is checked.
- If syncing by WiFi, the affiliate is checked every seven days. If you manually make a change, it could last up to a week.
- When the affiliate is checked, is stored in the config file. It is in the "ApplicationPreferences" section with the key "LastAffiliateSyncTime". Setting it to a future date appears to work to prevent the check and it being changed back. The following is about 10 years into the future:
Code:
LastAffiliateSyncTime=@Variant(\0\0\0\x10\0%\x94h\x3!>i\x2)
Putting that in the config file should block the check for a while.

Would you mind explaining what does the following mean?
Code:
@Variant(\0\0\0\x10\0%\x94h\x3!>i\x2)
