Settings > Hotkeys > Attach to current foreground process

I could not save a hotkey to registry for "Attach to current foreground process" no matter what I tried to do. So I tried to see if it was a global issue for this window, and placed unique hotkeys in a few of the following functions. Those worked fine.

Then I noticed that the unique hotkey I had saved in "Popup/Hide cheat engine" had been replicated and saved in the "Attach to current foreground process" field as well. Ah HA! There's your problem.

The reason why any hotkey I placed into "Attach to current foreground process" was turning up blank when I restarted CE, was because the "Popup/Hide cheat engine" field was blank.

Right now I have to add my desired hotkey for "Attach to current foreground process" and leave "Popup/Hide cheat engine" blank, and I can use the hotkey for current session only. Once CE is restarted it's back to blank.

I hope you can patch this soon I have a full screen game that gets twitchy when I Alt+Tab or popup CE.

Thanks for your years of hard work. :)

I see what's going on here.
There is an entry for 'Attach to foregroundprocess Hotkey' in windows registry which both popup/hide and attach to foreground process settings read from but only popup/hide setting writes to.

That's what I said in a nutshell. I hope they can patch it soon.
