Scanner Options not saved in project file

PG | Last updated: Jul 18, 2016 02:02PM UTC

Apologize for the double post. I saw someone with a similar issue and posted on that, but I'm not sure if that was the proper way to do this or if I should start a new thread. Please correct me where I'm wrong and delete any post that is wrong. When I start a new project, I select a file to save it to disk (New project on disk) and then I have a default configuration file that has Active Scanner Optimization set to "Normal" and I confirm it is set. At the end of the day, I close Burp. The next day when I start Burp back up, I chose to open an existing project and I select the file I started for the test. Then on the next screen, I select to load the configuration file that goes with that project. When I go to lock at Scanner Optimization is set to "Fast". I'm positive I never changed it back to fast and this has been happening every day since I started using the 1.7.03 version. Is this behavior expected or what am I doing wrong? Thank you.

Thank you for the fix. I tested it this morning and version 1.7.04 does indeed resolve the issue. Thanks again.
