Curve won't save in Equalization, just a straight line

I don't remember which version I was using when I had to format, but I know it wasn't 2.2.2. It looked different and I don't think you had to select an audio track if it was the only one and you wanted to Amplify. Anyways, I reinstalled win10, and downloaded the latest Audacity version. Which won't save my custom curves in the EQ. So I was kinda browsing online and saw some things that said Audacity still doesn't fully support win10, so I decided to dual boot win7, and eventually just got rid of 10 for now. Same issue using 2.2.2 on win7. Curves won't save. Just downloaded 2.2.1, same issue. Is there some option I'm missing that I must've selected back when it worked for me?

It's working for me... I just followed the instructions and re-named "unnamed". A new "unnamed" showed-up so I could have made more custom curves. I closed Audacity and when I re-opened it I could select the new one I created.

Well I have no idea I had to go back to 2.1.3, which is what I'm using now and I can tell it's the same I had before the whole format/reinstall issue. Has to be some conflict somewhere, just no idea what. And for what I do, it takes longer if I have to make my high and low pass filter curves each time when i fix/enhance a song, I can make a video if you want with the newer software and show it's exactly the same method as I do on 2.1.3. Or I'll just continue to use this old version which doesn't bother me really, it works for what I need it for.

There will be a new version of Audacity coming out in a few weeks. The new version fixes several bugs in the Equalization effect (and quite a few other bugs too).

Awesome, Im sure its similar to what game developers go thru when trying (or not trying) to debug issues, the biggest ones usuually being resolution scaling, v-sync, and general stuttering because of bad optimization.
