Yes, that workes. What I do is the following: 
I move the original Setting-file to TmpSetting-file, and try to copy only the
good 
ones to the new (original) Setting-file. 
 
That workes, but the n +1 rest staiyng in the file , while in memory, when I
say  
setting.save. 
 
The Settings.Clear means to Clear all what is hold in backgroud.
