keys keep getting unbound.
Every time I start playing all my keys are unbound and I have to go to options and set "Use default" every single game. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Probably a problem with your config.cfg or autoexec.cfg, check those files (open them with notepad) and make sure "unbindall" is set to 0.

It just says Unbindall should I write "Unbindall 0" or "set unbindall 0"

"unbindall 0"

Edit: After you set it to 0, go into the file properties and make it read-only.

Odd, it doesn't seem to work neither does completely removing the Unbindall

Ehh, you tried all the usual stuff? Verifying files, reinstall etc.?

That's extremely unusual. You have an unbindall somewhere that you shouldn't.

Typically that command comes at the beginning of your autoexec/config.cfg file to wipe all previous bindings; "forget everything, this is how to set up the keyboard." I'd first check to make sure that you don't have that line at the end of the config file, because that'd certainly do it. ;)

After that I'd set up the keys the way you want them, then exit out of the game and get a copy of your config before it can be altered. Doublecheck that it's the way you want, then make a copy. Mine is called Pala.cfg, for obvious reasons. That way if your keys get messed up, it's very easy to reset them back to the way you want them; just get access to the console, through options/KB+Mouse if necessary, then open the console and type exec pala.cfg (or whatever you rename it to).

If you to have setting that are never changed by game or by accident then copy them to autoexec.cfg in same folder. Create the text file if it does not exist.
