Okay yesterday I was playing with my Adept and I hat set the quick slot key for Barrier to "T". ( She will only have Basic Armour, so I will need Barrier a lot. ) But after I hat to do an errand I restarted the game ... and some how the game hat Barrier back at the default "1" key, no more on the "T" key? And yeah when I made the change I clicked apply ... and before I quit the game I made a normal save. Even setting a secondary key is not remembered by the game after restarting the game? ( I have tried several times to set the keys. ) This has always worked with previous characters, like my with my Vanguard Dejah Shepard. So I have no idea why the game will no longer remember the key I set to barrier? It is not the end of the world or something, but it is odd and annoying and there should be no reason for it to happen? I als made no changes to the few mods I use, those are the same ones and the same versions as with my Vanguard.

Still hoping for a solution because it keeps happening, and it is starting to annoy the heck out of me.

Well there is an odd issue with ME1.
Every once in a while it will rewrite the settings files. I am not entirely sure why this happens, but that can reset various settings. I have mostly only had it happen if I haven't played the game in a long time, but I think it really just goes by how old the file is. I assumed it was probably the result of it rechecking hardware, but who knows.
The way you can prevent this is to set the files to read only so that the game can't change them. Of course this means you won't be able to change the bindings or graphics settings in game after that either.
The settings files are *ini files in the folder x:\...\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect\Config
Specifically the one with key bindings is BioInput.ini so if you right-click on it and go to Properties, check "Read Only" and the game won't be able to reset them after that.

I checked and it turns out I already have the following INI files set to "read only" * BIOEngine.ini * BIOGame.ini * BIOInput.ini So if this odd issue is the reason, how can it happen if I already have those three INI files set like that?

So there are no other possible opinions ... beside the one capn233 mentioned?

Seriously, I can not be the only one who has this? ( Or hat it in case of other people. ) Why did assigning hotkey work with all previous character, but all of a sudden no more with my current character? ( While using the same mods as before, so no changes. )

I realise it is a small thing, but I prefer to set some keys to the keys that I like to use. That they constantly get set back to default after I change them and on a later time start the game again, is most definitely not funny. ( And by now very annoying. )

?? So, have you unchecked the read only flag before altering the setting? (And rechecked after that)

I have not changed that after having done that, so this is very odd and very annoying. It worked with all my previous playthroughs and with the exact same mods, but with my latest PT the game some how decided that it no longer works? ( And I do not like that one bit. ) There has to be a reason for it?

I certainly can not be the only one who has ( Or had in case some one solved it. ) this problem. There has to be a reason and I need to know that reason. This problem is freaking annoying me more and more every day.

One thing to try would be to uncheck the read only flags for all the ini settings files and launch the game allowing it to overwrite whatever it wants.
Then in game redo your key bindings and whatever other settings it has reset, and then save that. Exit the game and redo the read only flags.

On one end that seems to have done the trick, I was able to set the keys I wanted and those are now remembered by the game after restart, so thank you very much capn233. But on the other end it is odd that I hat to use this method this time, with all previous characters I never hat to do this ... very odd? Any way I am happy this is now solved.
