I honestly have no idea what's going on here. "LastSaveLocation" was only used until v3.0 of pgAdmin 4 (when the entire file that it was part of was removed as part of the change to use the system's web browser), so unless you're using 2.x or 1.x, I don't see any way that it's possible for pgAdmin to write that to the plist file. > > Since nobody else seems to experience this problem, it’s probbaly related to > my specific set-up. I think it must be. Something - I have no idea what - is apparently replacing the file with a very old version. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
