Hi Promasta420,

Sadly i can only help you with one thing and thats regarding the ''disappearance'' of your beatmaps.
-When you go in game hit f5.
-It should ask you if you want to do a ''full process of your beatmaps''.
-Hit 1 or click on ''Let's do it'' It should start processing all of you beatmaps.
-Maybe after this some beatmaps will reappear in your beatmap list.
Also one thing about your game crashing when alt-tabbing, maybe try running your game in windowed mode ?

Let me know if something helped !
Kind regards,

The thing is that my settings also don't save so when i load back into the game its all messed up and my beatmaps do come back when i press f5 but i have to do it everytime now. Not sure how i can fix this and im really bummed out

move the osu!<PCname>.cfg out of the folder, set your settings and restart osu maybe the file is broken ( path should look something like this > C:\Users\PCName\AppData\Local\osu! you can also go into osu and type in ''Folder'' < easier way

If that doesn't work then it might be due to insufficient folder permissions, try to repair them at the bottom of the osu folder ( Repair Osu! )

Thanks for all the help so far

Now my beatmaps are saved as well as my settings. The only problem i have left is not being able to alt+tab so i can download beatmaps since i am currently not an osu! supporter

No problem,

-I dont know if you tried running Osu! in : borderless window or borderless fullscreen or windowed mode maybe that could help.
Thats the only solution i have for this.
If this doesnt work maybe someone else can help you

Kind regards,

If you're on windows 10, Windows key--->Configuration(the gear)--->System--->Focus Assist--->Disable everything in that tab.
