Save settings before shutdown/restart to prevent data loss #4025

Jack251970 · 2025-10-02T11:35:34Z

Added a call to Context.API.SaveAppAllSettings() before executing system shutdown, restart, or advanced restart operations. This ensures that any unsaved settings are persisted, reducing the risk of data loss during these actions.

286-287: Consider saving settings before log off for consistency.

Unlike shutdown/restart, this command doesn't save settings before executing. For consistency with the other system state-changing commands, consider adding SaveAppAllSettings() after the user confirms.
                     if (result == MessageBoxResult.Yes)
+                    {
+                        // Save settings before log off to avoid data loss
+                        Context.API.SaveAppAllSettings();
                         PInvoke.ExitWindowsEx(EXIT_WINDOWS_FLAGS.EWX_LOGOFF, REASON);
+                    }
377-379: Consider saving settings before exiting the application.

The "Exit" command closes the application without saving settings, which could lead to data loss if the user has made configuration changes. Consider adding SaveAppAllSettings() before closing.
                     Action = c =>
                     {
+                        Context.API.SaveAppAllSettings();
                         Context.API.HideMainWindow();
                         Application.Current.MainWindow.Close();
                         return true;
                     }

402-403: RestartApp() already saves settings before restart
RestartApp() in PublicAPIInstance.cs calls SaveAppAllSettings() before invoking UpdateManager.RestartApp(), so no explicit save is required.

Plugins/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Sys/Main.cs

Previously, `Context.API.SaveAppAllSettings()` was called unconditionally before user confirmation for shutdown, restart, and advanced restart actions. This change ensures settings are only saved if the user confirms the action by clicking "Yes" in the confirmation dialog. For all three functionalities: - Moved the settings save call inside the `if (result == MessageBoxResult.Yes)` block. - Retained the existing logic for executing the respective system commands, with checks for `EnableShutdownPrivilege()` to determine whether to use `PInvoke.ExitWindowsEx` or the `shutdown` command. This change prevents unnecessary settings saves when the user cancels the action.

Removed logoff operation logic and associated return statement. Eliminated return statement after recycle bin error handling. Removed async plugin data reload and success message logic. Simplified theme selector query handling by removing `return false`. These changes streamline the code and improve maintainability.
