Hotbars reset.

[BorealDusk]

I know it's not an unfamiliar issue but I've tried a lot of stuff. Basically, I made a brand new character, copied all the .dat files to to its folder and everything's good except every time I login the hotbars are set as default (skills in learning order, Return and Teleport on the right, every other hotbar empty). The thing is it's even happening on the character I copied it from, which is frankly annoying. I used the backup function, I copied and pasted the hotbar.dat over and over, deleted the character folder, let the system create a new one and pasting the .dat files there... And nothing works. Everytime I uncheck the "Read only" from the folder it automatically checks up next time.

Anything I can do other than reinstalling and praying?

Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

I'm having some trouble understanding what you are trying to do. You created a new character and you are trying to move the saved hotbars from an older character? If so, the hotbars are character-specific so you wouldn't be able to transfer them like that. The easiest thing to do now would probably be to redo the hotbars for both characters from scratch.

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
