New issue 5911 by waspberry: Options getting lost after restarts, etc
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=5911

Chrome Version       : 1.0.154.36
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested: n/a

THE ISSUES
On my desktop Chrome I have set up options and it will search from the
address bar, use icons in the bookmarks bar and remember bookmarks, and
passwords. On my laptop Chrome won't do some of these things, but will do
others, but inconsistently. Very frustrating, especially as I really like
it when it works. Both systems run XP, both work fine with Firefox etc.
Anybody got any clues?

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install Chrome (I have reinstalled several times in the hope that some
fixes have been introduced, but it doesn't seem to improve).

2. Set up array of five pages for start up - select these in 'options'
Expect... to see these pages on start up
What happens... I see these windows as expected - all OK, so SOME browser
setting persist after restart

3. Set up bookmarks bar, editing names
Expect... to see icons in bookmarks bar
What happens... I see no icons - ERROR (this is NOT a problem on desktop
machine)

3. Set up bookmarks bar
Expect... to see bookmarks on pages after restart
What happens... bookmarks all revert to default, all need resetting after
the machine is switched off and on.

4. Set up various password access log-ins
Expect... to passwords to be remembered after restart
What happens... none remembered

5. Set up Google as search for address bar.
Expect... to be able to use address bar for search
What happens... mostly doesn't work. I have managed to get it to use Google
for search 2-3 times, but then it's forgotten after restart.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
