But maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Summary:
Starting the import did the same, as if I would have installed 7 extension modules, one after the other, without restarting until all 7 were installed.
The I restarted, and all those 7 modules were there.
But none of my settings had been imported.

Details:
This is how I tested:
I used a test installation with many custom settings, filters, ...
From this installation I created a tsv export.

Then I closed my test-JD and renamed cfg folder to force JD to create a new clean cfg folder, which it did after restarting JD.

In this clean installation I installed your import script and then I tried to import settings.csv. I confirmed the security prompt.

What happened you can see in the attached screenshot collection:

More than 10 windows popped up.

The last one (the one on top) asked me, if I really wanted to install shutdown extension module.

Please note that I never installed that module in my life.

I clicked on Yes, anyway.

This provoked another pop up: 'New update available'

I clicked on later

The next popup said: Please restart JDownloader to finish...

I clicked on later

The next popup asked me about installing infobar.

Please note that I never installed that module in my life.

I clicked on Yes, anyway.

Again the update info...

Again I clicked on later

Again 'Please restart...'

Again I clicked on later

Please see the screenshot collection for the next popups.



When I was through, I restarted JD.

Nothing had been imported

But all those modules had been installed.

Any ideas what went wrong, when trying to import settings.tsv?
