Going back over this thread, I also see you mentioned you lost your INI file at one point. I know others have reported INI issue with versions of HS3 higher than 3.0.0.96. I just updated to the latest 3.0.0.181 and so far no issues.
The writing of the INI file goes completely via standard HS3 calls in their API. It's one atomic operation. There should be no reason it ever has a zero byte INI unless something went awry in HS3 itself.
I'll see if they've added a backup feature to their API as that might help in these situations but if not, the best I can recommend is occasionally make backups of your HS3 directory or at least the HS3\Config where the INI file lives.
