    Description

      We are using the default constructor of QSettings.

      With Qt 6.3.1 the path to the file was:

      /data/data/AddIdentifier/files/.config/Company/AppName.conf

      With Qt 6.4.1 the path is

      /data/data/AddIdentifier/files/settings/Company/AppName.conf

      So the settings are lost when the user get an app update because the old file is not used anymore. I am currently searching for the related change in QtBase.

      Edit: A Backout of https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/412556 (140ca89a3c2b8d78889d27217f977cd4de10041b) helps.
