HELP..Problems with permanent Column Views

I'm posting inquiries here to see if anyone knows of this before submitting a bug.

I cannot move my custom columns into a view position and have it be permanent. Every restart goes back to the view I've used for a long time. I do not use View Manager. The plug-in was installed, but I removed it to check if its presence affected this, but there was no change. I update regularly so cannot pinpoint a coinciding update and start of the problem. I've only just recently started making more adjustments to column positions. I am tired of re-positioning, re-sizing, and hiding these columns now. I use Caliber a lot, so it is significant.

EXAMPLE: Columns Viewed are A,B,C,D,E,F,G
* Move G and hide F such that A,B,C,D,G,E
* Close then restart PC or just restart Calibre; it always opens to the original.

I've tried this 2 ways, both of which worked in the past when I positioned my screen view:
1- The intuitive column drag to position and right click to hide,
2- The "Add custom columns" option where I use the up/down green arrows to move the column position,


Tech Info including testing environment:
Wdw 7
  • Calibre 2.40
  • No View Manager use or plug-in presence.
  • I do have my customized Calibre settings in a custom location that backs up to the cloud; however, the cloud syncing program is always inactive during Calibre use to avoid corrupting files.
  • Only basic background programs and virus software is running at the same time as these Calibre test.
  • There is plenty of memory.
