Q: iTunes 12.5.1.21 (Sept 2016) always forgets settings
Since installing iTunes 12.5.1.21 I have to agree to license and give/decline Apple permission to share details of my library every time I start up iTunes. It also forgets all my settings like Shuffle/Albums.
I'm running on Windows 7, fully up to date.
I've tried various suggestions from the web, e.g. deleting
iTunesPrefs.xml from C:\Users\<MyAccount>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
but no luck.
How can I fix this irritating problem, please?
Thanks

In you main profile try renaming:
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer as
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer (Old)
then launch iTunes. Will it now remember any preferences you set?
Assuming that works, and if you have any iOS device backups, move the MobileSync folder from Apple Computer (Old) into Apple Computer so that iTunes can see these again.
