problem with saving in wow

[jkkeogh]

hi, i recently made a post about when i launch my 5 wow's with Hotkeynet (1 pc and 1 wow folder) it works fine but when i exit next time i do it all my macros have gone and all my key bindings jamba settings etc. i thought o foudnt ehs olution as someone said to tick "always run as administrator" in the wow.exe properties. I thought this had worked but i loaded them up today logged in and yet again no macros or key bindings and no jamba settings. Also along with this when i untick addons before i logon they are still on when i log in .... all of this is really frustrating me as everytime i logon i have to spend hours doing macros and settings -.- ... Please Help !

HotKeyNet doesn't modify any of your settings, so the loss of your Macros/Keybinds/ect. is being caused by something else.

OH YES!!!!!! THANKS PEOPLE Fyldren and khatovar you have been a great help thx so much 5*.

This is what you posted in the other thread. From your enthusiasm, I assume the problem went away for a while.

Is that correct? The problem went away for a while?

If so, something changed in your PC to make the problem come back.

What changed?

well i was really happy because i thought it was fixed but i logged on today and it was back so it obviously didnt or if it did it only lasted a day do you know anything i could do?

Yes I know a couple of things you can do.

The easiest thing is to ask yourself what changed between that day and today.

On that day, the problem was fixed. Today, the problem is back.

Problems come back because something changes.

Can you remember what changed?

Did you do something different? Did you reinstall HotkeyNet? Did you upgrade a program? Did you change the way you do something?

all i did was turn on pc and do the same as normal so as i far as i know nothing has changed and as i said before (tried to say) it might of worked i thought it did though so it might not of worked in the first place

May be a dumb question but how do you logout of the game. Do you use the escape logout option, or do you X out of the different wow screens? When you make changes in the game, addons, new macros, and what not if you X out it will not save. If your clients crash it will not save. If you actually do the logout option or type /logout it will save your changes.

Sorry didn't get a chance to read your other thread yet so I gotta start somewhere lol.

(This post crossed Jubber's. That sounds like a likely explanation.)

All right then. Let's make sure HotkeyNet is really running as administrator.

Can you please reboot your computer.

Then go to the folder where you installed HotkeyNet and right click hotkeynet.exe.

Select "run as administrator."

(In other words, start HotkeyNet WITHOUT the shortcut.)

Launch your WoWs. Change some settings. Exit the WoWs.

Then restart the WoWs and see if the settings got saved.
