Preferences keep resetting to default after application updates

I'm running the ongoing "Beta" version of Illustrator for ARM. I have all of my preferences/settings exactly where I want them. Yet every time there's an update to the beta version, it resets everything to Adobe's default settings, and I have to go back in and re-set everything to where I want it. It's merely an annoyance, but it's a major one.

Hello @kaufmanj1973 thank you for reporting this. I see how this can be frustating. Have you tried saving preferences manually?
