I added "\RA to U+2799" to QuickFix and it works for me. Try it again and make sure that the Correction field is not highlighted.

I find inconvenient this behaviour: the conversion of a newly added QuickFix entry fails (regarded as empty string) if the Correction field is highlighted even if the Preferences window has been closed. I just sent them a feedback asking to change the behaviour.

I don't know. But if what you want to know is whether a faster CPU makes faster NWP's saving a large file, I'll answer affirmatively.
