Steps to reproduce

I have to revert my settings in each instance of PowerToys; specifically which app within PowerToys I've set to ON or OFF.

ex. I have set the following P.T. apps as active: color picker, Fancy Zones, Keyboard manager & PowerToys Run. BUT after every time I load P.T (manually after every boot -- I use Startup Delayer) I have to manually switch all P.T apps that I don't use, off.

PS - apologies, English is not my first language.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Automatically saved settings

❌ Actual Behavior

I must manually revert settings

Other Software

Startup Delayer - by r2 Studios

Similar/Same issue. Some features remain enabled (always on top, file explorer addons) but a restart of the application causes others (fancy zones, mouse utilities and powertoys run) to become disabled.
