I wish there were a way to keep the settings within Armory and not in the program's link. Is this sth that can be fixed? (.ini file?)

I'm with you, but then where would the .ini file be (and what if it were located in a path with non-ASCII characters)?

The "right" way to do this is of course to store settings in the Windows registry, however the Armory devs have to support multiple OS's, and it's understandable that they don't want to have to maintain different code paths for every OS.

On the plus side, an Armory dev did say that they plan to fix the non-ASCII-path issue over here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=984101.msg10727929#msg10727929

Another way to go about this would be to migrate all of the settings storage to QSettings. They already use Qt, and QSettings abstracts away the "right" thing and does it pretty well (it does use the Windows registry for example). Of course, every minute they spend fixing these types of issues is a minute they don't spend implementing something more important....
