as the title says, i've recently made a new character on renewal chaos and even when running as admin my shortcut bar's position is not saving. the shortcuts themselves are saving properly but the position isn't. sometimes the bar is gone all together, sometimes it's in the orginial position when you first create a new character (off center about 9 oclock only showing bar 1), and sometimes it's back where i put it. the extra 2 square bar does the same thing, it's either on top where it started (next to the map) or where i put it.

i've tried playing with my moniter's screen resolution and the game's resolution (running both as admin) as well as starting the game with the new changes (using admin as well).

the absolute best part is it happens everytime i change maps and when i teleport (meaning it's rarely in the same spot twice in a row when i teleport repeatedly).

any ideas would be super appreciated. thanks for your time.

edit: i've been playing for a while without having this problem. it just started when i made my new character and is effecting all my characters now.

edit #2: Dr Azzy (super thanks for helping everyone with everything) said, "Run RO as admin, and if that doesn't work, move the RO folder to a location outside of program files." i'm not totally cool with putting things on my C drive and not placing it in my program folder, i've had problems in the past. i've been playing for years with my gravity folder in my program folder, so moving it now seems sorta...
if i HAVE to move my game folder directly on my C drive, do i move the entire Gravity folder or just the Ragnarok Online folder with the .exe file in it?

I'm having this issue too. Sometimes F12 brings it back (usually in a random spot on the screen), sometimes it doesn't. My RO isn't inside Program Files and I always run as an administrator.

example: i logged in and my shortcut bar was not visible, at all. i immediately spoke with an eden warper, warped to the eden group and my shortcut bar appeared as 1 bar in it's starting position. i immediately walked out of the eden group and my bar dissappeared again.

i understand that F12 and with my mouse i can drag the bar to it's appropiate position, but to have to do it everytime i warp, tele/wing is ridiculous.

after Mr. Tyranitar's comment i'm starting to believe it has nothing to do with my side of the game.

please look into this and let me know, thank you for your time.

This is client-side. Window locations are not sent to, saved on, or retrieved from the server.

If you're using Windows Vista/7/8, move the RO folder out of program files (doesn't matter if it's the gravity folder or the RO folder that you move), that often fixes issues with things like this not saving correctly. The developers don't understand User Account Control, and as a result have constant problems related to it; issues with client settings not being retained is one of them.
