pto files "grow" during the project. First they only contain the images (and their info). In the next step the control points are added. Than the optimization settings and their calculated values are added, and so on. Note that recent behaviour is to create a temporary project which is maintained during the "panorama process" but which is not automatically saved upon closure of Hugin or starting a new project. You have to manually save the project if you want to keep your settings, or if you want to continue another time. With simple projects you might not care at all. I've found that with bracketed sets in your panorama you might need to "hand correct" quite some settings. These projects I always save (if I don't forget to do so). > > > Also, do I have to be careful about "losing" settings if I Open it > manually?

Hugin will take the settings from the opened project and use the defaults for the settings not present yet in the project (afaik). So, your settings from your previous project will be gone once you open a new/existing project.
