I just upgraded from 3.2 to 3.3 on Vista (Home Premium). Even though I run it from an administrator account, 3.3 remembers settings changes (sessions, etc) only if I "run as administrator". Otherwise it forgets them by the next running.
3.2 did not give me this problem.

3.3 remembers changes only if "run as administrator&quo
3.2 was not Vista-ready, and Vista emulated saving to local folder by using special user folder (they call it virtualization).
As result you will hardly be able to find a file, where settings are stored. Version 3.3 was updated for Vista, and now it works as supposed - Vista requires you to store setings in registry - check this for details:

I guess I could live with it, but it's a pain
I guess I could live with this, but it's a pain to have to run Synchronize It! in a special way in order to make a persistent change to any setting -- even window size!
(I work for a software company, and our software does this on Vista without modification -- and we consider it a bug which we need to fix in a future release!)
At a minimum -- at least notify the user that changes are not being kept when running in non-administrator mode. I spent about a half hour before I realized that this was the reason why my settings were getting lost when I first went to 3.3 -- it is silent, and continues to behave at the UI like 3.2 until I exit.
