How can I save changes to Preferences.sublime-setting file?

[quyle92]

Hi there,
I wanted to make some modification to Preferences.sublime-setting file relating to auto_complete_triggers, but after I saved the file, it only worked for the time when I was using sublime text. After I closed the editor, and re-opened it, the settings just went back to original one.
So may I know how can I save the changes permanently?

Are you accidentally launching safe mode? Sublime Text doesn’t clear your perferences on startup or anything like that.

In what exact directory do you save your Preferences.sublime-settings file?

Sublime Text has an override system for settings, much like how git also has an override system for its key-value pairs.

No. I am using sublime text 3 so there is not safe mode.

The directory of that file: C:\Users\free2\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\User\Preferences.sublime-settings
