NomNom is the most complete savegame editor for NMS but also shows additional information around the data you're about to change. You can also easily look up each item individually to examine its attributes, independently of a savegame, or get other useful information that are not related to a specific savegame (but enhanced if one is loaded).
When you load your save and click "Edit" under "Account", no changes made there will save. I've tried making changes there, clicking "Save" and "Save Account", yet the changes have no effect on the game. Closing and reopening the application also shows that the changes don't save.
Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Open NomNom
Load save
Click "Edit" under the "Account" section
Make changes to something in the account data. For example, unlock an expedition reward under "Quicksilver Synthesis Companion"
Save changes
Reload save file and witness the lack of changes
Expected Behavior
It should save as it says.
