Let me guess, you installed EQ in the directory C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86)?

Every time you move your UI windows around in-game, EQ remembers this by overwriting data in your UI_character_project1999.ini file.

Putting your EQ folder in Program Files or Program Files (x86) introduces a lot of issues with EQ having the right permission to overwrite files.

You should instead simply install it directly into the C:\ directory like so: C:\Sony\Everquest.

Alternatively, you keep your directory where it is and right-click "Run as Administrator" each and every time you play EQ.

This was the fight answer - moved the folder out of Programs (x86) to just the main drive menu and everything works great now. Thank you kind sir.
