Settings not saving.

So I just installed the game and every time i restart my game all my settings get reset. I have turned of read only and gave the folder admin permission. AFAIK the settings should be saved in my WTF folder. Here is a screenshot.

It's a game breaking bug for me and it would be great if someone had a solution to this.

Where's WoW Classic installed to on your machine? C:\Program Files (x86)...or somewhere else?

Can you uninstall and try creating a new folder and installing simply on the root of the letter drive instead of under the Program Files directory? E.g.: F:\NostlariusBegins\World of Warcraft Classic

EDIT: Now that I think about it, I recall it not hurting to move the entire game's contents around on you PC provided you move the entire folder and all its contents. Instead of taking the long way with an uninstall/reinstall, try cutting the World of Warcraft Classic folder out of your Program Files (x86) folder and simply paste it on the root of your F: drive. E.g.: F:\World of Warcraft Classic. Then try opening it, logging in, and test changing your settings then closing WoW.

You are amazing! Moving it to a different folder fixed all the problems.
Thank you.
