Check the following setting: General Settings Window: Always Copy Configuration Files to New Instances When Started (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> New Instances) If it is set to "Yes", then this means that however the main instance is setup is going to copy down to any sub-instances when they are started. So any changes you make in the sub-instances will be overwritten when you star the sub-instance again. That being said, we do not know why your main instance would not be the same as when you saved it. The one thing you can try to do is to restore the backup configuration file. Refer to the following: Resetting Sierra Chart to a Default State / Restoring Backup Global Configuration File: Restoring Backup Global Configuration File We see that you are running a version of Sierra Chart prior to all the changes we have made with regards to the MDI windows and graphics settings. We highly recommend updating to the latest release prior to making any significant changes to your setup. There have been many changes to a lot of graphics related items to make things more consistent and easier to use.
