Resurrecting this a bit, but this is obviously still a problem. I tried everything, nothing worked, until I did two of the things suggested in this thread.
1. delete the chat font size line in eq2_recent.ini
2. wait at least 60 seconds (autosave rate for UI .ini file) before logging off
Step one is apparently the critical part (at least for me). Once I took this line out of eq2_recent.ini, I was again able to add windows and change filter settings permanently.
I did NOT have to make my serverX_characterX_eq2_uisettings.ini file read only.
I now have 4 chat windows open as well, so it's not an issue with more than 3 windows.
