hey cj, since you said your having problems with HH saving i thought id share what support said in their email:
1. Change Folder Destination
It is possible that the folder where you are trying to save the files is
write protected (Program Files folder is often protected). To fix this,
simply go back to the Instant Hand History Options and set the folder to "My
Documents" or similar folder outside of the Program Files folder.
2. Your Configuration File is Corrupted
To fix this one, simply go to Help -> Open My Settings Folder. Then close
PokerStars, and in the newly opened folder, locate the file named "user" (or
"user.ini"). Right click on it, and select Rename. Name it "user.old" and
then press Enter to confirm the change. Please note that renaming this file
will revert all user defined options to their default setting and you will
need to reset those options.
