Songsmith and Lauraine - Do you have Karaoke Home Producer V2.009 or V2.008?
V2.008 had a problem that the Change Settings button dialog box changes would not store to the hard drive (the file to receive them was set to Read Only

).
This was fixed in V2.009. When you change settings and close the dialog box, they are changed. If you even exit the program and run it again, they are still changed. This is the correct behavior you should be seeing.
