Settings not saving

I did this today, Confirmed working on Windows 8.1 64 bit also, I can write a batch file with instructions to do this to make it easier, Anyone interested in that ?

i was having the same issue (settings not saving and minimap resetting) with documents folders redirected off my SSD. I recently added another HDD and in the process i restructured my drive letters. I had my documents redirected to my F: previously but changed that drive letter to D:

even tho i thought i moved the "My Documents" folder properly i was seeing the ghost folder showing up in the POE install directory (same problem was happening with Civ 5 but that game handles it better and created a proper game save folder in it's directory) so i tried restoring the default libraries, deleting and recreating them and moving them again with nothing helping

Finally I checked the registry and sure enough under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders

my documents was still trying to redirect to F: (which i relabeled so it did not exist)

After a quick fix and a reboot it fixed all my problems. the settings and minimap persist now

Not sure if this info will help anyone else as network storage it probably handled diferent

Any idea or answer...?

It´s not funny too play with resetting Tab-Map after a rejoin area...

Cheer´s

So I'm assuming there's still no 'permanent fix' for this, which they had been working on for almost a year now supposedly, is there?

Having the issue too; another bump for justice (and a fix!)

Same problem here.

Any update to this problem?

I would prefer a command line option so that we could tell the game the path where settings should be saved/loaded from.

I`ve got the same problems. Is there no resolution?

I've been getting this issue. I have a junction in "c:\users\x" which points at "e:\x", which contains all of my documents so that I won't lose anything in the event that I want to blow away c:\ and reinstall windows. I'm running windows 10, and none of the previous instructions in this thread seem to quite fit, but it's pretty annoying as every time I start Path of Exile it starts in windowed mode, and I want it to start fullscreen.

If I navigate to the "My Games\Path of Exile" folder within the documents folder and click in the title bar to get the address windows just shows the address as "C:\Users\x\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile" even though the object is actually on e:\, which is the way that the junction works. Windows doesn't even see the difference. The Production_Config file is there along with my item filter and so on, I know that Path of Exile sees them because it can apply my item filter and items are filtered correctly. And yet my game settings aren't being saved when I change them and I get a windowed screen every time I start Path of Exile.

My PoE folder at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile" doesn't contain any subfolders at all that look like a reference to my documents folder or anything.

{edit} It seems I have been able to fix the problem by removing my production_Config file and allowing PoE to generate a new one. {/edit}

{edit} Actually, it seems that the settings are being saved and everything is running fine, but if I'm running in the DX11 beta it starts in windowed mode no matter what I do, but it's fine to start full screen in DX9. {/edit}
