Thanks for reporting.

Im not sure if this particular issue was known already, but there are several ongoing issues with the keyfile editing on the settings page. The workaround used for those issues should also work for this issue, which is to edit the keyfile using other software, rather than BMS. I typically use notepad++, but I understand the alternative launcher also has a built-in keyfile editor which some folks prefer.

As there is a workaround, Ive amended the severity to "minor". "major" issues do not have workarounds, while "minor" issues have workarounds.

Ive also amended the priority to "normal" as the bugtracker here is not deciding on what order issues should be fixed by BMS, which is the point of priority. BMS devs are welcome to revise issue priority on the tracker, once issues have been reported.

Those are all removed from code a while ago. I was not aware of that.
Fixed in next release (well, if you want to call 'deleting something from the key files' a fix...).

Ive marked as fixed in dev version, although with the same thoughts. Thanks for the update, Kolbe.
