The Settings file is created/saved when the program stops, or if you call 
explicitely Settings.Save in your program.

It can be a bug in the program. For example, QUIT prevents Settings.Save to be 
called automatically, and maybe you use it, and it is called only in the 
context of your friend's computer.

Try to call Settings.Save explicitely to see if it changes anything.
