"Color" settings not being saved

[Gregen]

The brightness, contrast and gamma levels I select are reset back to 1.00 every time I start the game.

They used to save a long time ago, when I had DDO installed on my C: drive. However my C: drive is very small so I got a secondary hard drive with more space and uninstalled DDO, reinstalled it to B:, and ever since then the colors will not stay saved. Also since then every time I start up the game I have to click once and the screen flashes black quickly (ok that's a very minor issue but it's probably related).

All those settings are not saved in the game directory.

They are all saved in the [Render] section of the $USER\Documents\Dungeons and Dragons Online\UserPreferences.ini
( in my case it's : C:\Users\Flavilandile\Documents\Dungeons and Dragons Online\UserPreferences.ini )

You can edit this file using a text editor ( notepad for example, NOT wordpad though )

Hmm changing the values in notepad did not make a difference, it still reset it to 1.00 upon loading the client. I could set the file to not be overwritten, but then I would have to unlock it every time I wanted to change something. Gah, I suppose I'll just have to set it every time I log on.
