Description:
If you click on activate any of the log files, the my.ini server settings will get commented out and upon restarting of the Administrator you will get an error message "Could not find settings ..." Essentially, making the Administrator useless.

How to repeat:
In the Administrator, Startup Variables view, select the Log files tab. Activate any of the logging files. Apply changes. Exit Administrator.

Open up Administrator again and login. Will get message "Could not find settings ...."

Go to my.ini and look at server settings. They have been commented out e.g. port, datadir, basedir.

Suggested fix:
Better QA

Thank you for a problem report. Please, try to repeat with a newer version, 1.2.8 (from GUI Tools 5.0r8), and inform about the results.

Version 1.2.8 of Administrator does not contain this bug. Activating logging works as expected. Thanks!
