Post From: NPP path in Global Settings Issue - Migration

Hi, I've copied my Sierra Install to a new drive, new computer.
I was checking in Global Settings to verify the paths were correct.
The "Text Editor Path and Filename" NPP path was pointing to an old, non-existent folder installation.
I selected the correct path and clicked 'apply all', however the settings won't stick.

After a search of the support board I found the method of selecting the editor path from "Build Advanced Studies DLL> File> Select Editor"
After selecting the correct NPP path there, it remains correct from that menu.
However, the path is still incorrect in global settings.
On a completely Fresh install, it seems this entry is empty in Global Settings.
When I check the path in "Build Advanced Studies DLL> File> Select Editor" it is correct there. (Fresh Install)

So I'm wondering if this has to do with a super old config file that is corrupt?
Should I rebuild my whole Global Config (config4) manually on a fresh install?
Should I ignore it, as everything else seems fine & happy?
Or is this a minor bug that will eventually be fixed and again... just ignore it for now?

I'd rather not have to re-do my whole global config manually, but I will.

Pls advise,
Thx
