So here is what I did:
- Jaikoz wasn’t running, no need to kill
- Removed
...setting.properties
-
Jaikoz won’t start without
...setting.properties
file; Open Preferences impossible
- Instead of reinstalling, I went to
home/usr/jaikoz/bin
to look for the jaikoz library config file accessed during first install via Termnal
- In Terminal I entered
cd home/usr/jaikoz/bin
-then- ./jaikoz
A new settings.properties file appeared in the ...prefs
folder.
Based on the Terminal output below, I think this replaced the /home/usr/.jaikoz/prefs/setting.properties
file with a new one, without re-installing everything else. Please take a look.
As far as I can tell, no other files were copied.

- The window skin theme had changed back to “Light” from “Dark”.
- While Jaikoz was open, running from the latest Terminal command, I was able to successfully open the Preferences window.
- After exiting, I attempted to re-launch Jaikoz with the desktop application shortcut I had created earlier.
- Jaikoz launched
- Changed some preferences to test: “Dark” theming, Adding columns to
Info
tab as previously discussed above.
- Closed Jaikoz
- Opened Jaikoz with the same shortcut from desktop
- Attempted to open Preferences again
- Same error dialogue popup as iterated in OP
- Jaikoz did not allow me to open preferences.
EDIT: Just went into home/usr/jaikoz/lib/app
to look for the settings.properties file I noticed before. It is completely empty.
Should this file have anything in it?
Should it be the same, or different, from what is contained within
home/usr/.jaikoz/prefs/setting.properties
?
Also, what is this part and can I fix it?
