Could you try installing the "Freehand Drawing" plugin again to see if it fixes the issue? But that should not happen regardless

[hublex]

Thank you Laurent. Is there a possibility without opening Joplin? Because Joplin do not open.

Try enabling safe mode - https://joplinapp.org/debugging/#safe-mode. That should allow you to start it. Otherwise you can find your plugins in your config folder and remove it from there (should be in C:\Users\<username>\.config\joplin-desktop\plugins).

Just because I mention it every time, make a backup of the whole joplin-desktop directory before messing around in there just in case something happens.

If Daeraxa's suggestion doesn't work, what you could do for now is open the file :\Users\<username>\.config\joplin-desktop\profiles.json and here change the "currentProfileId" value to another profile ID. For example to "default". If it's not clear, please post your profiles.json file here

For reference, here's how js-draw is registering settings.

Thanks, I noticed this. What happened is that most plugins don't register their settings to the filesystem, even though it's valid to do so. So this case has never been tested along with the multiple profiles feature. I'm going to release a new version with a hotfix for this and a few other minor issues.

@hublex, does it work with the latest version? https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/tag/v2.10.17

[hublex]

wow you are a genius.
20.16 didn't but .17 did.
Thank you very much.
Do you think the given addons are working now, or should I better not use them any more?

[laurent22]

They are working fine, it was an issue with the app itself!
