    This issue has been persistent, and I have the latest version. It's also telling me it's unable to load noises as well. I have everything in C: drive, users, my name, documents, xfer, serum presets, and yet its telling me to restore these presets? The message pops up on EVERY preset I click on, whether default or third party.

    Go to C:\Users\-Username-\AppData\Roaming\Xfer\Serum
    and open "Serum.cfg" with notepad.

    In the last line there should be written down your Presets path. If it's not,
    you could add it manually by typing [C:\Users\-Username-\Documents\Xfer\Serum Presets\].

    If that doesn't work, backup your presets folder, uninstall Serum and do a fresh install
    of Serum to test if that problem persists.

    I forgot a little important thing:
    With the recent serum updates, the settings file changed to "SerumPrefs.json"

    To change the path, edit the "Serum Presets Path" entry
    Code:
    "Serum Presets Path": "C:\\Users\\-Username-\\Documents\\Xfer\\Serum Presets\\",
    I just moved the whole folder to E:\Xfer\Serum Presets, changed the path in the json file
    and it worked like a charm... but it's necessary to add those 2 backslashes inbetween.
