I fixed a bug in TInifile only yesterday. Maybe that is it.
Loading form state should work, saving may still exhibit the problem.

Thanks, I'll get another FPC update and retest.  The problem occurred
mostly at the save stage (closing a form).

I would recommend using TIniFile anyway, even on windows.
Using the registry is Bad (tm). At my job we started with the registry,
but in the end moved everything to Ini files. Much more practical, and
portable to boot.

I fully agree!  I hate the registry.  I have actually just completed
the change in tiOPF to rather use TIniFile under Linux, even if you
call gINI or gReg singleton functions in the tiOPF framework.
Unfortunately I can't change the gReg function under Windows as there
are other users relying on the Registry for settings.

As for my own apps and any user settings, I call gINI which stores
them in a .ini file on both Windows and Linux.
