I am on Windows 8.1.
I am using an old PortableApps version 8.6, so I don't know if these issues are due to the PortableApps wrapper, or to the age of the Sigil app.

I have problems getting the INI to retain my setting for Code View Font-- although my preferred font Monaco is installed in the Windows font folder, it does not appear in the GUI font selection list (which I don't understand, as other "non-standard" fonts do appear in the list). So with Sigil closed, I edit the INI manually. But it would frequently revert to default Courier. I discovered several months ago, that any changes to preferences in the GUI, such as changing the Pretty Print settings, or selecting a different spell-check dictionary, would reset the Code View Font automatically. So now I just manually edit again.

But last night I had a new experience --- Notepad froze while loading the INI, and no wonder! It had grown to over 6 MB! When I finally got it open, it seems that it was storing a ton of clipboard history. This history looked like several sessions worth of info. I deleted manually, opened Sigil again, and did some more editing. When I shut down, yup, new clipboard history was stored in the INI, which stood at 1.6 MB.

I don't know if the INI has always stored clipboard history this way, or if I have something strange going on with my portable app.

Any advice for granny?
