Account setup changes my choices not saved on both old and new systems (win10 and win11). Also multiple prefs.js files.

In both my desktop older installation (now updated) and my new laptop installation, when I go thru Account Settings and check off what I want, it all changes when I leave the setup. I uncheck the startup page, and when I open both versions of Bird, the startup page is there again. Same with table/card setup, and other options. Isn't there a "save" in Account settings? Thanks, Stacy

Thank you. Tho other people can help, only one or two have been as patient and kind as you have. It almost seems TBird only wants to be used by Techies, not us regular people.

And btw, I have found a few flaws in FF recently. I've been using both FF and Bird for over ten years, but have now changed to DuckDuckGo browser and all of my problems with at least FB have gone away! I was saving that for another time, but . . . .
