Persistent settings

[DyeffersonAz]

Problem description

For reasons I don't know yet, my settings keep resetting to some state that is not even the default ones. I was tinkering through the settings and now I can only use with the same ones, every time I restart Anki the same group of settings is reestablished.

P.S.: When I go to another PC, put the same add-ons and sync, the problem is the same.
