You know ...
I don't complain about a lot. I love this game, even with it's flaws but the one thing that is probably going to make me quit at some point is the logging in to find all my macros gone OVER AND OVER. I knew as soon as I heard the music it was going to be a mess so I logged on with not my main account. It was fine. I logged in with my main account and it was fine. Log out, log in as another character on that account ... they are all gone. AGAIN.
It takes a long time to set everything and then have to remake all the ... stupid ... macros again ... IT IS RIDICULOUS.
If I wanted to do the same thing over and over, I wouldn't set macros.

I'm not using the incognito spell ... I'm not changing anything. It happens for no reason at least once a month.

Just checking it is not the basics...
When you create Macros, you have to log the game out properly for them to save, ie - using the Paperdoll Log-Out option. If you don't, the macros will not save.
If you crash out, time-out, hit the X at the top of your screen - none of these count as a proper log-out, and your new macros will not be saved.
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
At the time the normal practice was to write changes to file at closing. Probably from lack of cpu power and normal drive speeds. Remember back then 2400 was a high speed modem.
it happens when PC crashes while UO is running, but it’s prob not uo causing the crash normally, I have many other programs (OBS, discord, pingzapper, various web tabs, works software etc) all running at the same time.

My hubby was finally able to find the file from the day before I started traveling and email it to me and I've saved it to my computer and in OneDrive so I can access it. In a way, it worked out better because now I know what I'm doing wrong and also, the file he sent me had my old macros on it before I switched to a skill that I wasn't sure about. By the time he sent it, I was sure I wanted to go back to the old skill so ... they were all there
Thanks again everyone!
