SMM Fails on Start after Fresh Install: "Failed to load settings"
Tried installing the latest version of SMM with Satisfactory 1.0. SMM produces this error whenever I try to start the application.
The following is from the SatisfactoryModManager.log file:
{"time":"2024-10-21T18:44:14.5721347-04:00","level":"INFO","msg":"starting Satisfactory Mod Manager","version":"3.0.3","commit":"eab4298f6fdfd6b14c10d158a34cd3b7807783de","date":"2024-10-21T18:43:48Z","type":"nsis"}
{"time":"2024-10-21T18:44:14.5836338-04:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"failed to load settings","error":"failed to unmarshal settings: failed to unmarshal SMM2 settings: json: cannot unmarshal string into Go struct field smm2Settings.launchButton of type bool"}
I have tried:
- Clearing all SMM related folders in AppData
- Reinstalling Satisfactory

Paste that path into the windows search bar or into the run dialog (win key + r)

Your previous SMM2 settings are corrupted. Go to
%appdata%\SatisfactoryModManager and delete the settings.json file.
