Preferences are stored in user.cfg, which I backup regularly. It is a text file, but as it seems to be reordered randomly, different versions are hard to compare.

Re: Integrated Assembly workbench

object should be just Active (same as PD body for example). Why did you need Edit mode for that purpose then, why not just set assembly active?
