Open settingsold.ini with Notepad.
The following will help you edit the file to create your own default preferences.

True is to enable that option (tic in the box), False disables it.

Once you have edited the file, Save AS settings.ini
Change the properties of the file to Read Only. If you don't, the program will change your settings the next time it closes.

The next time you run the program, you should see the changes.

This may work for other versions too.
