Back to Elite after a while. Can someone give me a hand?

[JughedJones]

So, I fired up all the updates for Elite and my HCS voice pack and Voice Attack.

Everything is working well. Except when I change the control bindings for something, it works great until I pull up the control bindings menu again. In which case it sets everything back to default.

For example. I switched the UI bindings so I could use it with my keyboard instead of the HOTAS. That's the way I like it. It worked great. Then I went to the galaxy map and realized I had to do the same there, and realized
that I had changed the galaxy map bindings fine, but all the other changes I made before went back to default.

After testing, it's clear that every time I pull up the key bindings menu, it changes everything back to default.

What's up here?

Thanks!

It sounds to me (just guessing) that your .binds file (or the folder it lives in) is marked read-only.
