User profile settings are not saved or resored

Hi, some of my user profile settings are not saved/restored.

When I change the theme, activate backgrounds, screensavers or anything else on that page everything works as long as I don't close the browser window. Reopening it resets everything. I looked at the user files via ssh but couldn't find any xml tags for some of the settings (as above) although there all the other values stored.

I created a new profile and tried to do the changes, but it didn't work.

I'm using EmbyServer on a Qnap nas. Version 4.5.4.0

Any Idea what I can do?

Hi, sounds like browsing data is getting cleared. Prevent that and it should resolve it

Can you please be more clear about what to do? I tried another browser, but this didn't work.

So how can I prevent clearing browsing data?

A lot of setting are client setting and saved on client only (ie cookies).  There is no save and restore of these settings.

So if you have a browser setting that deletes cookies/cache settings then you have to apply said setting every time.

Every browser has a history/privacy setting and or third party tools that can clear your history/cache.
