I have the same problem. It autochecks "Hold select hero to follow" in options every time I log in and its seriously annoying.

Fix this by simply setting the files required to no longer be read-only (just unchecking a box under right-click > properties)

The 2 files required are in steam/steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/dota/cfg.

Go to dota cfg in your installation folder and uncheck read only option in properties.

Hmm maybe turn the steamcloud saving? If you exit the game fast enough and terminate steam it wont save

Search for Steamcloud, turn it on and it will keep your settings, do not exit dota 2 and close steam abruptly, wait for the game to save the settings to steam cloud before closing it
