After each restart of SolidWorks system options are back to default...
To last week everything was OK, problems started one week ago.

SolidWorks hangs options in some files? Maybe they have read only atributes (but why)?

No one else has this question

Can you upload any affected file to test.

You can create a copy of the system setting using copy setting wizard so that you can fix them if they go off next time.

  Deepak, it's not depend on file.
  
  For example (what I did):
  1. Open Solidworks
  2. Look into settings - they are default.
  3. Change some settings (i.e. some options in External References)
  4. Close SW
  5. Re-open SW
  6. Look into default - they are default again :-/
  
  I've try recover my preferences from backup (made maybe two months ago), but without result...

    Do you have many external reference paths in options dialog?
    Does all settings change back to default or just some spesific?
    
    I had and still have problems particularly with external references but I have found workaround.
