If you exported them at some points, then yes.

some of my corpmates had the settings come back after logging in then logging out and restarting the launcher. Mine were never removed so cant help with anything from personal experience.

My overviews, my in-game browser bookmarks, where my windows were and what size and what's stacked with what. The ******* intro-movie even played, and the client launched in full-screen, not windowed as I prefer. Basically, just everything about how I've customized things.

Nice ******* job CCP. Really I was just starting to believe you guys about the whole improved processes and you guys learning and not making the same mistakes. This is like CCP default patch problem #1. Teach me to buy into whatever you guys put in your koolaid.

Try the restart thing, if you haven't already. Meaning shut everything EVE related and then use the launcher again. The new launcher uses a different folder on the first try, so everything gets reset to default. With a restart it goes to using the old settings.
