AME Beta suddenly doesn't recognize CUDA

With today’s build the problem is still here.  Unless you visit Settings, it renders software only.

Just confirmed in this latest version, AME does not recognize CUDA until you go to Preferences and select CUDA acceleration.  If you just drop a file into the render queue, it reports Software Only rendering until the settings are changed.

And even then nothing had to be changed. I just had to enter Preferences, noted that CUDA was selected, then the Renderer reported CUDA active.

Build 20 and earlier were broken for CUDU render in ME,  Build 21 fixed it, and it came out this morning…  there is a chance your system background updated ME….  but if you now have version 21, it is fixed, I ran a quick not complex test, and it is now using GPU.

So first I restarted the machine.  Launched AME and it still showed software only.  So I went to Preferences.  Use CUDA was checked.  Clicked OK and the Renderer now showed CUDA acceleration.

Shouldn’t that be by default?
