DISREGARD.
Please read answer provided (lol)

My add-ons key bindings are becoming changed\unbound somehow.

EDIT: Also just noticed it's not saving my bind for Sheathe\Unsheathe weapon, so it's happening to a degree with the stock bindings too. WHAT is going on holy heck.
Something else odd, it isn't saving when I turn off tutorials under 'Gameplay', every time I reload, Tutorial mode is enabled again.

For all my add-ons this morning it's been very bad. I can set things under one character, my main for example, tick the box to use the bind account wide.
When I switch characters or reload back into my main, the bindings are all scrambled or unbound.
Even add-ons that I previously had NO bindings set for, have now been assigned keys that I had set for other add-ons?

Not sure how long it's been going on exactly, I think it started maybe a week ago, but it was with only 1 or 2 keys. Today tho it's like all my bindings got thrown into a blender.
I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this other than to ask here and hope to heck that someone has heard of this?

EDIT: Forgot to add that the only major thing I've done with add-ons recently was installed a couple of trial\raid based ones but those have no keybinds set, their UI only.
Raidificator and Group Death Notifier. I also reinstalled Harvest Map.
I can't see how either of these would cause what I'm experiencing.

Based on everything above, is this maybe a file corruption or permissions error with the .ini ?

    Answering this here in case someone else has a bad case of PEBKAC with this.

    My "problem" was the add-on called Account Settings but also me not understanding how it worked apparently.

    I'd forgotten that I'd used it (for the first time) the other day when I created a new character on the EU server. I used it to bring the settings from my Main on NA, to that new character on EU.

    Problem was, I'd enabled Syncing while I was logged onto my new EU character.
    Then thought to go back to my NA main and use her settings as the defaults.
    So logged off EU, logged onto NA, loaded my main and clicked Save All Settings in the add-on...

    Whoops.

    Since syncing was on, it had already loaded the unbound and defaults from my new EU char onto my main account.

    Once I disabled 'Sync' in the add-on my original (good) settings are now being loaded.

    So yes technically my fault, not the add-on.
    Live and learn.
