I have had this happen to me. In my case it was caused by opening up files
with the defferent settings for all of the options. I got around it by
setting one master file with all of the settings I prefered, and being
completely out of EXCEL and opening that file to reinitiate all of my
preffered setting

I keep loosing my settings in Excel. Periodically, my toolbars reset back
to
defaults and my custom toolbars are gone. Also, my custom colors I set in
Tools|Options often resort back to defaults.

What could be causing this and what can I do to prevent it?

What's the easiest and cleanest way to back up these settings and then
reapply them when needed?

What file keeps the color settings?

Thanks.
