Re: issue with win 8
You have probably placed the Xpadder.exe in the program files folder. As Windows doesn't allow programs that are not running with administrator privileges to write in that area, Xpadder cannot save it's config file.
That's, by the way, the reason why so many games are saving configs and save games under My Documents or AppData.
You have two possibilities:
1. You can simply place the Xpadder.exe somewhere else (e.g. my documents), so everywhere else than the Program Files folders or the Windows folder.
2. You can run Xpadder always with admin privileges via the Task Planer.

That you are also directly avoiding the UAC-Issue.

Re: issue with win 8
In Windows XP it was still possible and usual to save directly in the installation folder, so the newer Windows versions are probably supposed to allow that in this or a lower compatibility mode.
The problem is if you disable this possible after the Xpadder.ini has been created, Xpadder will not be able to change this file anymore. So any changes in the Xpadder setting cannot be saved again.
