@philip - There’s a little bit more to that second file: “It’s a memory-mapped file, so it’s constantly being written, but is subject to standard file caching.”
However (another warning from Mary TMI St.John), like many under-the-covers" and not-documented-elsewhere tidbits that get shared here, using these files creatively is not officially supported, subject to change at any moment and all the other fine print. And as @philip pointed out, likely to change between firmware versions.
But the Opto Tag Preserve utility is fully supported. So are persistent variables, which are for this purpose exactly, so we need to get THAT fixed for sure, if it’s not already.
Always fun to explore other ways of doing things, though. That’s what we do!
I stopped SoftPAC, copied all three *.O22 files
Then started SoftPAC, changed my persistent variables to something else.
Stopped SoftPAC, copied all three files back, restarted SoftPAC and my old persistent variables came back.
So try copying all the *.O22 files and see if you can restore them.
Like Mary says, fun to experiment, but I don’t think I would want to rely on this method.
Nothing in the R1 is replaceable, unless you count whatever you plug into the microSD card slot (if you have one of those), but that’d be just your data/files.
