Last Used doesn't work

I love this software but I have a couple of issues with it. I'm running version XnView MP 1.7.2 64-bit Windows, on a Win10 laptop
I want to maintain a 100% view once I select it but every time I move to a new image, the 100% view is lost and the next image just fits the screen. I have Tools>Setting>View>Auto zoom "last used" set but it isn't working.
TIA

you open an image file in a tab, select 100%, and click on 'next picture'?

That is what I've been doing: I select a photo, make it 100%, and then either with the arrow keys on the menu or the arrow keys on my keyboard, move to the next file. The 100% view doesn't stay and I have to make it 100% manually.
I have made a few changes to the keyboard shortcuts, for example, instead of <shift>8 for "*" I use <Ctrl>1 as in Adobe Bridge to get a 100% view but I believe the Last Used setting should still work. At any rate, even if I use the default keyboard shortcuts that came with the app, Last Used doesn't work as expected.

you can use 'lock zoom'

Well, lock Zoom works but it requires an additional keystroke to invoke it. I have been working with the shortcut file and now, for some unexplained reason, the 100% view is staying when I move from image to image. I must've done something weird in that file earlier, I dunno. But I'm happy for now.
Thank you.
