FYI, in the latest snapshot I only get the "File not found" error once and
the settings stick now. Thanks a lot.

I wouldn't say that was a bug -- another unimplemented feature
(well, now implemented), namely searching the Windows registry for
Rgui.exe when it's not in the path.

I guess that means you don't have permission to write registry
entries under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. In today's snapshot I have moved
the relevant entry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. You might see if you're
able to get settings to stick now.
When saving the registry entry is enabled, you should only get the
"File not found" error once, the first time you try (unless you type
the correct path to Rgui.exe into gretl's Preferences dialog). Allin.
