and Avaya's support is notoriously sucky. BUT, I did find out what the purpose of Preferences.xml is. It keeps settings like window positions. Bearing that in mind, I figured before reinstalling I'd try blowing it away (renaming it, actually) to see if it would recreate. It did, and the app came up fine. Preferences.xml is located in %APPDATA%\Avaya\one-X Agent\2.5\Profiles\[Profile Name] on Win7/8. Written by josefek Posted in Software, Tech, Work 9 comments June 2, 2014 - 7:40 pm Jason Thanks! That worked for me also! March 18, 2015 - 12:29 pm mediawhapper worked for me too. There are actually two Preferences.xml, one https://macosx.com/threads/error-saving-preferences-in-mail.320723/ at the ..\Profiles\directory, and one at the ..\Profiles\[profile name] directory as Josefek stated. The [profile name] may well be "default". So the file I needed to delete was ..\Profiles\default\Preferences.xml. Once that was gone, one-x asked (when starting up) for the profile to use, and I had to select the "default". As soon as one-x proceeded, I could see a new "Preferences.xml" file written to that directory. Thanks Joesfek!

I had not run into this issue until yesterday with one of our end users and tried running and repair/reinstall only to have the issue reappear again. After consulting the Google gods I came across this post and it worked like a charm. Thanks so much for sharing… You saved me a bigger headache! May 22, 2015 - 8:35 am Matt This solution is gold July 24, 2015 - 1:47 am Nam Thank you so much! I must've not been searching for that file in the correct places. I figured, removal and auto re-creation would've helped. You helped me with a piece of the puzzle. July 31, 2015 - 11:55 am Frank That did the trick. Much appreciated! August 14, 2015 - 11:21 am Sean That worked for me asl well: C:\Users\YOURNAMEHERE\AppData\Roaming\Avaya\one-X Agent\2.5\Profiles\default Renamed Preferences.xml as Preferences.xml2 Restart Avaya! Here it works. Thanks to all May 27, 2016 - 4:30 am Johnek HELPED me too, thank you! Post a comment Cancel reply CommentYou may use the following HTML:

First I need some information and I also want you to check some things that may or may not be affecting the situation :Please go to the Apple logo on the upper left of the screen, go to About This Mac (DO NOT Select More Info), and tell me the Version (under Mac OS X), the Processor and the Memory, it is all right there.Then open Macintosh HD (your hard drive on the desktop usually), then go to Applications folder inside that is another folder called Utilities inside that is an application called Disk Utility. Double click on that and when it opens you will see your hard drive (usually Macintosh HD) on the left. Highlight your hard drive and click on Verify Disk on the far right. If that is OK click on Repair Permissions on the left. If Verify Disk is not OK try to Repair. If Repair is successful then Repair Permissions if it is not successful let me know. Ask Your Ow
