Sound Forge Pro 18 not remembering save settings, plugin settings

Hi, I just recently updated to SF 18 from SF 14 and am having some issues. Previously, anytime I saved a file, the save settings would default to the "default" setting, that is to say, whatever the file itself was set to. Now, it doesn't do that. It chooses some other setting, which means that if I'm not paying attention, I'll end up converting my file to something I don't want. Is there a way to fix this? Also, last-used plugin settings aren't being remembered. So if I want to use the same settings repeatedly, I have to manually re-set them every time, even when I'm applying the processing several times in a row. How do I fix this? I'm also getting weird audio glitches during recording that I've never heard before, and only started happening when I switched to SF 18, so I don't think it's my audio interface or something else. I think it's SF 18 causing this. Anyway, help with any/all of these issues is appreciated, until then, I'm going back to SF 14.

@Dan-Hicks I believe there is the option to save the current settings as default in the file export dialog? You would need to enable/disabled that.

To my knowledge in newer Sound Forge versions, the plugin settings always revert back to the default if you don't save your last settings as a user preset.

Hi, I don't want to save the current settings as default, what I want is for sound forge to default to the settings of the current file i'm working with when i go to save it. so, for instance, if my file is at 24k/96, and i go to save it, it should default to save at 24k/96, rather than something else like 44.1k/16.
