I use PellesC and so i'am very pleased.

I save all my files, but  I  receive popup  message " x.rc has been changed outside the editor. Do you want to reload it?" ..if i choose  YES... all my changes disappears..!?..what is the matter!?

with best regards

I do get this occasionally and I always select NO.
It seems to be related to working on a network drive.
If you are sure, you did not change anything, always ignore the notification.

This always because an Add-in called "Increment build-number",once you build your project the Add-in increase build number which is a kind of resource in resource file.Once changed,The IDE notify that the resource file has been changed outside the editor.

Thanks for answer!

qfly is correct.  The problem is with the Increment Build Number Add-In.

To stop the error coming up every time, I just keep the .rc file closed and only open it whenever I need to modify a resource.

Hope this helps.
