Settings (except Check for update on startup) are not shared between applications.
Load at startup
If checked the application is automatically loaded when the user logs in.
Start minimized
If checked the application window is not shown when launched. To show the window, click on the icon in the system tray.

Show battery alerts
If checked, you will get notified when:
The battery level of your device is 10%
The battery level of your device is 5%
The battery is fully recharged (rechargeable devices only).
Check for update on startup
If checked an automatic Direct update check is performed on application start. If a new version is available the release notes are shown.
Note: This may not work in company networks with proxy servers. In this case, do a manual update check with Help > Web update check... .
An update check can also be performed any time via the Help menu.
If this option is enabled, an update check is also performed every two days while the application is running.
