What can I do to prevent this? Or is it too late. I have so many custom settings and scripts installed. You can see here alone that it looks factory reset.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Couch_Potatoh_0-1744259191207.png" style="width: 600px;"><img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1487750i2F01BDC4C622A6E8/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Couch_Potatoh_0-1744259191207.png" alt="Couch_Potatoh_0-1744259191207.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Please help me. It's unbelievable it just decides to reset itself like this. This picture is showing what Max looks like when I open another instance of it. I just moved the windows next to each other for comparison.</P> Thu, 10 Apr 2025 04:27:40 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/new-instance-of-max-resets-settings/m-p/13418178#M274 Couch_Potatoh 2025-04-10T04:27:40Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/new-instance-of-max-resets-settings/m-p/13419502#M275 <P>Hello&nbsp;<a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3293829">@Couch_Potatoh</a>,</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><SPAN>I believe your custom changes will be saved once you close 3ds Max.
