Well, since I don't have a backup ini file, my preferences are lost either way.

My last ini backup is from 2014, version .6.2.
I made a backup of the current file while it's apparently still working.
Opening the current ini file, I can see a lot of stuff I don't care about (history, last search/file, etc) and the things I do care about seem readable and I can paste them into a new file when the new version comes, or at least use it for reference. So I'll live on the edge and keep using it.

What about Sigil-clips.ini?
Is that also at risk?
Backed that up now.
