My Element settings seem to have reset over the last few days #31155

@Half-Shot

Description

@Half-Shot

Steps to reproduce

Unsure of reproduction steps. I was first tipped off when my custom notification sound (notificationSound) had changed back to the default, and then when inspecting the settings of Element through the devtools, it's mostly blank:

{
  "type": "im.vector.web.settings",
  "content": {
    "releaseAnnouncementData": {
      "newNotificationSounds": true,
      "newRoomList_intro": true,
      "newRoomList_sort": true,
      "newRoomList_filter": true,
      "newRoomList_settings": true
    },
    "MessageComposerInput.insertTrailingColon": true,
    "SpotlightSearch.recentSearches": [
       // A set of rooms
    ]
  }
}
