Troubleshoot Product Settings Being Reverted to Prior Values
Symptoms
Sometimes, the settings you saved might not get into effect. When you go back and check your settings, you find settings reverted back to prior values.
Cause
This might be due to the scheduler running in the background when you are trying to make changes in the settings or any other technical issue.
It might also be possible that the same set of primary credentials of Webgility are used to log in to an add-on computer where the scheduler might be running.
Resolution
Follow the steps below to make changes in the settings:
1). Turn off the Scheduler: Access the scheduler from the Windows System Tray, right-click the Scheduler icon, stop if it is running, and then click Exit to turn it off.
