Settings not working in luanti 5.11 win64

I have a weird issue with the settings of the minetest game. I change the settings in the menu but it is not changing the configuration.
My minetest.conf was completly empty after adding all the settings.
I had to manually add them. is this done on purpose or is this an issue in the settings?

By navigating the menu, Luanti will add (or modify) a few setting lines on its own. Navigate in the main menu and then Close Luanti. Look out for the very recently modified minetest.conf file in the parent directory of bin. If there's no such file, Check the user path as documented here: https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/?tab=readme-ov-file#paths

PS: minetest_game is the collection of mods that you used to create the world. Luanti (previously Minetest) is the C++ engine, where topics like these should be reported to.
