Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 2020 SR0
Operating System: Windows 10 64 bit

Good morning,

I just installed the new Origin 2020 on several PCs and run into a possible bug. We use since several Origin versions customized menus for about 40 PCs in our junior lab. We do this by adding a new menu level in origin.ini, not by using "Custom Menu Organizer" which we have disabled.

Up to version 2019b, one can choose the menu level via "Preferences --> Menu", the next picture is captured from Origin 2019b:



In Origin 2020, the "Preferences --> Menu" is always empty:



The original and customized menus itself are working properly, if you set them by the command "Level=" in the file origin.ini.

Best regards,

Manfred

Hi mduds,

Thank you for reporting the issue of Origin2020.

I am afraid it is a bug in 2020 and sorry for the inconvenience.

I have reported it to our development, and we will fix it in the future version.


Thanks
Jacqueline

Hi Manfred,

One of our developers pointed out that the previous behavior may be restored by setting the system variable @SCNFM = 1.

I will send you an email with details about how you can automate setting that system variable for multiple installations.

Here is how to set a system variable:
