Thank you for your interest in SolitaireCG. I will investigate this report.

This issue has been confirmed.

Version 2.6.1 broke the automatic saving of game statistics and settings. This meant that an upgrade to a newer version, such as 2.7, started as if a fresh install. None of the previous game statistics or settings survived the upgrade.

Note that this issue is also present in version 2.7. This means that an upgrade to the next version after 2.7 will also not automatically save game statistics and settings.

An enhancement to address this issue has been committed to the git repository.

[1b903d] Restore automatic save of game statistics and settings

To try to work around the lack of automatic saving of game statistics and settings, try using the Exit menu option before upgrading to a newer version of SolitaireCG.
