All I can think of is that the program doesn't have write access to where it stores its configuration.
Figures. How do I fix that? It worked on Windows 7 Pro on my desktop at my home, why wouldn't it work on Windows 7 64-bit on my laptop?

I disabled UAC on my system so it works anywhere for me, but you probably shouldn't do that. Did you extract it in C:\Users\User\Downloads\ ? EDIT: Themaister would like an official bug report...

Nope. C:\Emulators\Multi Console\Retroarch_Phoenix.exe. UAC and DEP are both set to disabled. Not sure why extracting it prevents the config file from being altered, yet, let's say I use the emulator at 6:54PM, the config file will update to that time, so something's getting written or at least trying to write to the file, but doesn't complete. I even created a new directory but to no avail. Unfortunately, this machine only has two partitions on one HDD. Edit: Creating a new directory does nothing, can you send me your config file and see if it works? The Read Only attribute cannot be disabled, it never saves.

Thanks! It works with the config file now, but I must run it with the admin privileges.
