Advanced Options Menu not available in v1.7 #343
Comments
Also having this issue on Windows version. There's now a cog that shows up in the window which, presumably, is to the advanced settings, but nothing happens when I click on it. Trying to find a way to roll back to 1.6 |
@jssalter https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-imager/releases/tag/v1.7 says the advanced settings option only works if RPi Imager detects that the image is "configurable" ? |
@lurch I've confirmed that this is happening for the default RaspiOS Desktop 32-bit. |
Can you confirm what OS you have reproduced this on? Did you run rpi-imager on Raspberry Pi OS? |
Same for me on MacOS Big Sur 11.6.3 with the RasPiOS 64-bit Lite image. A gear icon appears but does nothing. Ah, as I was typing Jeff uploaded a gif; so yeah, that. |
As mentioned when creating the issue, I'm on Debian Bullseye x86_64 |
Works for me on macOS Catalina. It may be a permissions thing on Bug Sur, because it does prompt me before opening the window asking permission to give the Wi-Fi password from my keychain. Permissions get a lot more complicated on macOS post-Catalina. Whether I give it permission or not the Advanced Options menu does appear though. |
@aallan Thanks. It may be that but the previous version 1.6.2 of Imager works well on Big Sur and Monterey. And the OP has this issue on Debian x86. |
Ah, caused by the hidden wifi ssid code. As a workaround for now, deleting your stored settings should work. Linux:
Mac OSX:

@maxnet - After quitting, deleting the preferences file, and opening Imager again, I see no difference (keyboard shortcut doesn't work before or after selecting an image, settings cog never does anything when clicked). |
The plot thickens—attaching a video because it's the easiest way to illustrate, but basically, when I choose to 'Write', the only way in 1.7 for me to actually be able to write an image is to clear all settings—the settings choice dialog appears but again, clicking on any of the options to configure the advanced options results in nothing happening: pi-imager-settings.mov |
Just tested it on another laptop, this one running macOS Big Sur 11.6.1. It works for me. I get the same prompt to pass wifi credentials from my keychain, but either way the Advanced Options menu does appear when I hit the cog wheel. |
…s file - Fix advanced settings not working if users has wifi settings saved with previous version of Imager, and user selected "use always" Ref #343 - Also fix problem where "SSH enabled" is not saved on Mac OS X due to the check assuming QSettings stores settings as strings, while with the plist stuff on Mac OS X it is stored as boolean.
Strange. Can you confirm or deny that these builds do fix the problems? |
@maxnet in v1.7.0 i had exactly the same bug (macOS monterey 12.0.1) but with v1.7.1 it's fixed for me as well |
Everything's working as expected on 1.7.1. |
Good to hear things are fixed in 1.7.1 |
Yes, 1.7.1 works on Big Sur, this is without having deleted my old "always use" settings. Thanks! |
I was trying to use Raspbian 32-bit.
Thank you |
I'm afraid I need to revisit this issue, as the appearance and setting of the Advanced Options menu is not actually writing the
I have mounted the image after attempting to write with these customizations and have confirmed that there is no Thank you again for your attention to this, |
Using what Linux distribution?
The code to modify cmdline.txt if necessary is now at a different place. |
As mentioned when I opened the issue, I'm on Debian Bullseye x86_64 The distro I was trying to write to was RaspiOS Lite ARM64 found here I will assume, then, that the 64-bit version of RaspiOS will not accept the ability to run a |
That one definitely does work. Did you check for firstrun.sh immediately after write, or did you boot the SD card first? If you are using your own image, and it did not generate firstrun.sh, there do should be a user-data file instead. Is that the case? |
I checked for

Thank you very much for your work -- there must be something wrong on my end. I appreciate your help |
No, I had the same issue with writing PiOS 64 Full from MacOS; no customisations were written, not even ssh was enabled. The image write was to a usb ssd, not an sd card, but I didn't think that would be different. The image worked, just no customisations. I will have to revert to 1.6, too. |
Does it concern settings saved in an earlier release to always use, with ssh public key authentication and did you use any beta release (such as the m1 build) that allowed you to change the username without setting password? Then you may need to change settings, either enter a password or uncheck the set "username and password" box, and "save settings". Problem described here: #345 (comment) |
Hello and thank you for
rpi-imager
I just rebuilt to upgrade to version 1.7 and no longer have access to the "Ctrl+Shift+x" Advanced Options page.
My OS= Debian Bullseye x86_64
When using those key presses, the console prints the following (I preserved the starting console output as well):
I've confirmed that the same thing happens when using an image from the online Operating System list. The output below is from selecting the default RaspiOS 32-bit and trying to click the Settings icon and trying to press "Ctrl+Shift+X"
Thank you in advance for your help with this,
Patrick
