Not sure this is a bug but I can’t figure it out. User installs FinalBuilder on a clean workstation. User opens our FinalBuilder project from a .fbz5 file off the network. Project fails validation because two of the Tools…Options settings are set to the original default instead of what we set them to. Do these reside somewhere where I can configure the settings? I thought perhaps an an INI or registry setting but I can’t find them.   
  
Somewhat related, do you have a deployment guide document and/or best practices surrounding deploying FB and projects to large development teams?   
  
Thanks again.

Jeff,  
  
Those settings are machine related and are stored in the FinalBuilder5.ini file in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VSoft\FinalBuilder5\FinalBuilder5.ini  
There is also another INI file for user related options here: C:\Documents and Settings\<user name=""\>\Application Data\FinalBuilder5\FinalBuilder5.ini
