Exclamation Edit of "kobo eReader.conf" are lost when unplugging kobo Clara HD

Product: Kobo Clara hd
Firmware: 4.25.15875
Plugins: koreader, wallabako
File types: pdf
Sideloaded or from Kobobooks:yes
On external SD: no
Steps to reproduce:
  1. plug kobo in computer
  2. Open file /.kobo/Kobo/Kobo eReader.conf
  3. Add at the end of file a section to make nickel library ignore dot folders
    Code:
    [FeatureSettings]
    ExcludeSyncFolders=\\.(?!kobo|adobe).*?
  4. unplug kobo
  5. see that files located inside dot folders (eg :".pdf") still appear in the library
  6. replug kobo in the computer
  7. Open the file /.kobo/Kobo/Kobo eReader.conf and see that the modification is gone.
Current result: library cluttered with unwanted files
Workaround: none found

I could not find any mention of this little trick not working anymore. Any idea ?

Thanks in advance
