Hi,

I had the exact same problem (your translation was on point by the way, just 
added some well placed "the" that aren't in the English version), and 
uninstalling/reinstalling wouldn't work, but I noticed uninstalling *and* 
deleting the former installation folder (which still contains a Settings.xml 
file, seems highly relevant), then reinstalling (I went for RC7 btw, dunno if 
it changes something but why not...), and right now it works like a charm.
You might want to try it and tell us if it changes something for you.

According to what I've read (on GitHub in particular), Settings.xml-related 
issues are quite common and the dev's havin a hard time solving those.

indeed, in the latest RC7 I actually put the settings saving function in a loop 
where it loops the save function until the settings.xml file is bigger than 20 
bytes, which should remove the chance of having an empty settings file.

Great :D

I'll try that as soon as I get back home to my computer and hopefully report 
back with great results.

Idk if RC7 just got released or I just somehow installed an old version but 
I'll update before doing this fix to see if that fixes the problem.

Thanks for the help, both of you!

Okay, couldn't wait^^ Connected with teamviewer and tried it.

It works!
Not just with updating though, I needed to uninstall, remove the folder in 
AppData and then reinstall as #1 said.

Not really a place to put this but there needs to be a way of turning off some 
of the hotkeys. Cause right now they just become red when you set them to none. 
Not fun.

Thanks again for the help!
