Is there any other way to change settings beside changing them in Tools>Options>AsmDude ? #122

On my older PC running Windows 7 with latest VS version 16.9.0(and the only one tested), I am getting a black screen in Tools>Options>AsmDude. I tried a bunch of different things, none of them worked. At the end I successfully changed the settings by installing AsmDude on my laptop running Windows 10(with same microsoft account) and changing settings there, which resulted in those settings getting synchronized on the PC(I didn't even know that that was a thing...).

Anyway I am posting this as a reference so that other people searching through issues can find it, you can immediately close this issue if you want. My only question is, can settings be changed in a different way ?

Oh also opening Tools>Options>AsmDude window, closing it and opening it again, results in VS crashing for me on Windows 7.

What pops to mind is that AsmDude (the current version) uses .NET framework 4.8, and I assume that the last .NET framework that is compatible with Window7 may not be compatible (with 4.8). But that is just an assumption. I think the settings are stored in some windows registry, but searching them did gave anything useful. Sorry, I guess I can't really help.
