settings are not saved and are only applied until iterm is restarted

Thanks for filing an ! Please answer the questions below so I can help you.

  • iTerm2 version: Build 3.5.14
  • OS version: 15.5 (24F74)
  • Attach ~/Library/Preferences/com.googlecode.iterm2.plist here (drag-drop from finder into this window)
  • Attach a debug log, if possible. Instructions at https://iterm2.com/debuglog
  • Attach a screen capture video if it would make the reproduction steps clearer.

PLEASE ATTACH YOUR PLIST FILE FOR BUG REPORTS! Seriously! I'll probably ask you for it if you don’t.

NOTE: Your plist file may contain private information. Mark the issue private to avoid sharing it with the world. Alternately, email the plist to gnachman@gmail.com and include the issue number in the subject line.

Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. change any settings, for example theme from Regular to Compact
  2. restart iterm

What happened: theme is Regular again

What should have happened: should be Compact
