Controls Reset

[DragonRider]

Likely one of the following:

1. The controls config file/s are marked as "read only".
Go to Documents/My Games/Freelancer and find the files "PerfOptions" and "UserKeyMap". On each: Right click > properties and make sure the "read only" checkbox is NOT checked. Apply. If it was checked, set your controls again and they should remain saved.

2. Freelancer doesn't have sufficient admin right to actually save the controls to the file.
If you are comfortable with doing so, set Discovery's Freelancer exe to be ran as admin. Some people don't like doing this citing security concerns, but I never had an issue running any game as admin.

To do that, go to where DISCOVERY is installed > EXE folder > Freelancer.exe. Right click > properties, check "Run program as an administrator". Apply. Don't actually run this file, not needed. Launch your game as you normally would, trough the Discovery launcher. Controls should start saving again, once you set them.

Hope it helps.
