sorry, but stacks in standalones CANNOT be saved! NEVER!
But you can workaround this by:
1. Storing your info in a textfile and read it in again on startup...
2. Create your standalone only from ONE stack, e.g. a splash screen,
and check this in
the standalone builder on the "Stacks" card in the "Advanced options"
on the right:
[ X ] Move substacks to individual stackfiles
Separate stacks that are NOT part of the standalone, CAN be saved...
Hope that helps.
