Claude desktop deletes the windows settings file %AppData%\Roaming\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

[cmosguy]

Describe the bug
There are automatic updates to claude desktop, I think.

All the sudden I find that the file %AppData%\Roaming\Claudeclaude_desktop_config.json was obliterated. Of course I have no back up or check of this file because it is located in the settings folder.

Someone at Anthropic should figure out where how it is getting deleted.

Thanks!

Sorry about the issue - this doesn't happen during normal updates or even clean installs during testing. Are you running in an Active Directory environment that attempts to sync Roaming AppData?

hmm.... I am not sure I do have OneDrive, I am using corporate machine.
