Version: 12.0.3.1821 (32 bit)
Preferences > User interface > Key Configuration - are not being saved.
I change some hot keys, Apply, Ok and the re-open preferences and my changes are gone. I don't have administrator permissions on this workstation so maybe some access rights are involved but the why are there no errors shown and why other preferences ARE being saved, for example: Oracle > Options > Allow editing of database source - checkbox is saved.

The problem is that I cannot clear the values (cannot disable a hotkey for an action at all) - it is being set back to default.

Is this a bug that someone can fix?

Yes, but are there anyone willing to?
So far, I asked in vain. Even my workaround was disabled.

Any comment from the support? Will you fix it?

What is the point of releasing new Betas if the old versions have these kind of major bugs?

Sometimes I loose pieces of code by accidentally pressing CTRL+Up that returns the code in some previous state and don't even notice it. I notice it only after some time when the file is saved and it is too late. It IS a problem.

At the moment clearing a key will revert it to its default. If you want to disable Ctrl-Up in the SQL Window to prevent accidental usage, assign an "unlikely" key combination such as Ctrl-Shift-Up.

That's not THAT unlikely. It's one of the worst workarounds I've ever seen. frown

yea...today I lost a weeks work thanks to this bug.
Good thing we create backups every night.

Is it really THAT hard to fix it? We're not asking some artificial intelligence enhancement here.
