Speed Type directory and configuration file

Hi all!
I'll describe a strange behaviour observed in my PC.

Environment:
SqlDbx x64 Version 4.13 (Professional Edition)
OS: Windows 10 Home Edition

I installed SqlDbx and it works fine, but in Options >General >Directories, Speed Typing setting is: D:\Documenti\SqlDbx\SpeedType.xml
It should be noted that for some strange reason in my HD SpeedType.xml is a directory instead to be a file and this directory is empty.

Tools >Configure Speed Typing... opens a dialog box where I specified the Shortcut and the Substitution Value but as soon as I click Save I get the following error message:
"Failed to save file: D:\Documenti\SqlDbx\SpeedType
Probably directory does not exists or not valid.
You can change it in Options >General and try again."

The solution seems to be the following:
1. Create the subdirectory "SpeedType" (I choose D:\Documenti\SqlDbx\SpeedType) leaving it empty.
2. In Options >General >Directories set Speed Typing := D:\Documenti\SqlDbx\SpeedType\SpeedType.xml
3. In Tools >Configure Speed Typing... edit the desired shortcut/substitution value, then Save.

The new file "SpeedType.xml" will be created with the correct shortcut/substitution value.
The directory D:\Documenti\SqlDbx\SpeedType.xml can be deleted.
