title: STS 3.8.3 Mac-OS forgets all settings (and installed plugins) on reboot
body: <p>So very weird, first time I ever saw this, problem install STS version 3.8.3-release on Macbook Pro running mac osSerria v10.12.3.  Here's what's I do:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Down load the STS distro <strong>spring-tool-suite-3.8.3.RELEASE-e4.6.2-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz</strong> from <a href="https://spring.io/tools/sts/all" rel="noreferrer">https://spring.io/tools/sts/all</a></li>
  <li>Move the zip file to my <strong>Applications</strong> folder</li>
  <li>Extract the distro.  This creates the <em>sts-bundle</em> folder, and; under that, the STS programs exists.</li>
  <li>I then just run STS.  Since this is a first-time I <strong>do</strong> get the pop-up for selecting the default workspace.  I change it to where I want the workspace and I also check the "Don't ask again".</li>
  <li>Install some plug-ins, do work, everything is normal.</li>
  <li>I <strong>can</strong> exit the app throughout the day and, when I go back in all is cool.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Now...the problem...
   1. Shutdown the laptop for the day.  This is to say I select Apple->Shut Down..<br>
   2. The next day I come in, boot-up the laptop.
   3. Open Applications and select STS and run STS.</p>
  
  <p>At this point, I get the "Select default workspace" popup again...all my preferences, and installed plug-ins are <strong>forgotten</strong>, and it's like I'm running the application again for the first time??  It is especially weird that any plug-ins I installed are also forgotten??</p>
  
  <p>I have completely removed STS, and reinstalled several times and it is pretty consistent.  Also, I have installed STS on several iMac desktops without issue.  This smells like a <em>permissions</em> problem but not errors just...all customized preferences are simply gone.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.</p>
