Boinc preferences keep reseting to default on boot

HI, I recently migrated from UD to BOINC on 6 machines. Five of then are not having any issues, but on one of them, everytime the machine restarts, the default skin changes back to default from WCG, and the icon on the task bar reverts back to the bonic. I bring up the client, change the skin back
to WCG, have preferences set to customize for this computer only,
click on SAVE....but next time it boots, it resets. The other machines seem
to remember their settings. Does anyone have any ideas?

thanks

Try this: make the changes again, then exit BOINC Manager (don't just close the window; exit it completely. When you start it again, the setting should stick.

Wish that worked for the relative position the BOINCmgr window was in too crying
