If Lazarus is on Linux, one problem is due to file permissions.  Your
.lazarus directory was somehow changed to read only or owner so you
can't save env variables on it, if not, the file must be corrupt?
If on Ubuntu in your home directory, you can try 'sudo chown
yourusername.yourusername -R .lazarus' then launch lazarus, change to
correct settings, exit then run again.
