I closed the client after playing and when I am back on the client again in about 3 hours, the client had a bug. First, I noticed the language filter, which I turned off, was turned off. I didn't have client volume on but I could hear the client music. Some of the other settings are changed, for example my league voice changes. There were also tips and flashing icons about new features added in season 9. There is a pop-out window about season 9 which we've already seen at the start of the season. After I got into champion selection, I noticed the rune pages that I previously set was gone and instead were the 5 default pages since the season 8 rune reforge. All the changes to the runes recently are marked with a flashing icon. My summoners' spells are set to smite and heal but I assume it is supposed to be reset back to ghost and heal, I just got the role jungle and it automatically switched to smite for me. My skins choices are reset back to the original skin. I need to manually set it back to the skin I last played with. I really hope Riot can resolve the issue since I fear next time I open the client the same bug will happen again. I've seen bug reports about similar bugs happening over and over for one person. It will be extremely frustrating to set your rune pages and settings every time you launch League.

TL;DR Client bug, showed tooltips, custom rune pages are reset. Skin choices and summoners' spells choices are reset in champ select

Yup, that happened to me yesterday. I sent in a ticket, it is still not fixed. They assigned a guy who tried to be helpful saying that the config folder is read-only, but that is not the case. Riot's server is keep sending the wrong files in that folder so it is accessible. I don't think riot has a clue why this is happening. I believe there is a big mess-up on their server. I was afraid of this when they started to store all user settings on their servers as opposed to our computers. I regularly back-up the config folder, and I will see if I can restore the user settings, but I don't have high hopes.

After a month of this happening again and again it finally stopped! (for now) I clicked the Stats tab with the new marker. clicked through stuff there, next I went to the highlights area and created a random video snippit, just so it's no longer on default setting. Next time I logged in the launcher performed a corruption check and now my launcher runs faster than ever before and my problems are all gone. I just hope it stays that way. Feel free to test these steps yourself.
