"Don't ask again" selection not honored.

To reproduce:
  1. Open a JPG image in XnView MP.
  2. Crop the image via Edit > Crop.
  3. Export the image in PNG format via File > Export.
  4. Go to File > Delete. A dialog box titled "Do you want to save changes" will appear.
  5. In that dialog, check the "Don't ask again" checkbox and then click the "Don't save" button.
  6. Quit XnView MP.
  7. Follow the steps from 1 to 4 once again.
Expected result: On repeating the procedure, the "Do you want to save changes" dialog will not appear in step 4.
Actual result: On repeating the procedure, the "Do you want to save changes" dialog will appear in step 4.

this setting is valid during instance, you need to change savingChanges in xnview.ini

This does not help.

I have set "savingChanges=1" in xnview.ini, and now a dialog box "Write settings" appears in step 4.
