Some settings get saved with the database. When you connect, those settings override whatever is in the CFG file.

My normal login has full administrator privileges, but apparently that's not good enough for Windows when RBG91_64.EXE is run from the default desktop icon created during a default install. By explicitly starting R:Base by choosing 'Run as Administrator' from the desktop icon pull-down, R:Base returns the message: "File C:\Windows\RBENGINE91_64.CFG has been saved." ... and the file modification date is updated. Not a deal-breaker; but interesting that the Configuration changes persist over an exit/re-entry. Hmmm.
