I created a macro and set it to load on startup. I no longer needed the first macro because I incorporated it into a second macro, so I deleted the first macro. However, now I get a macro load error on startup. How can I remove the reference to the first macro on startup (UE version 28.10)?
I think, you mean with macro a macro file. A macro file can contain multiple macros.
On using an older version of UltraEdit/UEStudio delete in the opened dialog window Set Macro Auto Load on Startup the macro file name or use the Browse button and select the macro file which contains now the often used macro(s) and then click on button Set.
Do not wonder on opening this dialog window a second time after deletion of the macro file name that the deleted file name is replaced now by the full path of the directory configured at Advanced - Settings or Configuration - Directories with the setting Default macro directory. That does not matter as a directory path is not enough. There must be configured the fully qualified file name of a macro file to be loaded on startup of UltraEdit/UEStudio and not just the full name of a directory containing one or more macro files.
The entire section [MacroAutoLoad] is removed from the configuration file %APPDATA%\IDMComp\UltraEdit\volatile\ue.vod respectively %APPDATA%\IDMComp\UEStudio\volatile\ues.vod on deletion of the macro file name in the dialog window, clicking on button Save or Set, and exiting UltraEdit/UEStudio.
