If relevant, please answer to the following questions:
1. What version of Python(x,y) have you installed?
   2.7.2.1
2. Which components have you installed (Python(x,y) installer: component page):
   Full
3. Have you selected the option "Customize installation directories"?
   No
4. If the answer to 3. is yes, what installation directories have you
chosen?
5. Where did you install Python(x,y) itself?
   Default path
6. Have you installed Python(x,y):
   For "Current user only"
7. What is your operating system?
   Windows 7
8. When you installed Python(x,y), were you logged in as :
   An administrator of the machine 
   (my user account has admin privileges)
9. If you are using Windows Vista, have you installed Python(x,y):
   Simply by double-clicking on the installer
10. Regarding installed softwares on your machine, how did you clean your 
machine before installing Python(x,y) (multiple answers are possible):
   Uninstalled previous Python distribution (ActivePython 2.7)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Install Console2 using its own installer.
2.  Edit tab settings.
3.  Install python(x,y) including its own Console2.

The Console2 window that I get when using the python(x,y) launcher has all the 
expected tabs (e.g. ipython(x,y), ipython(sh), and the rest).  

But when I run Console2 from my original installation, all of its customized 
tab settings are gone.  (Also gone are the changes to background color, window 
size, etc.)

In effect you installed console twice, once using python(x,y) and once using 
some other method. The above seems to reasonable outcome.

The Console I installed with python(x,y) did not replace the one I had 
installed previously.  The previously installed Console is still installed, and 
has its own separate configuration (no ipython(x,y) tab, no ipython(sh) tab, 
different background color, etc.) compared to when I launch python(x,y)'s 
Console.  

Why did the installation of Console with python(x,y) remove my other 
installation's configuration, and then create a new separate configuration 
independent of the now-deleted original?  This does not seem reasonable.  

However, this behavior could be from Console's installer rather than yours.
