Since some updates many settings are not updated on the fly as they used to be
I.e.: "effects" option keep the original value from start until exit

In the past, using "save_config" was usefull to prevent loosing modified parameters in case of some crash/hang after they were altered
but now "save_config" even it writes the config, simply writes what options is showing: the status at load time and what was altered from within it

i took "effects" as an example because it is easily visible, but this apply to many other, so that some plugins and scripts using "setting" get the wrong value

Wonder what others you mean then. It's certainly not something that changed since effects config was always updated only on exit.

Window positions, custom buttons, effects in slots, padpages were previously saved when using "save_config" it seems this is not the case anymore

No idea why it doesn't save for you anymore. Just tried editing a custom button, and it saved fine for me.
Pad pages are saved in their own xml, and these are also saved as soon as the editor closes.
Window positions are now stored in the skinWindows setting instead of skinPosition, but this is also updated instantly.

Only effects are only saved on exit, but that was never different.

of course!! i was talking about setting "padsPages" in this specific case.
It looks it updates as well as the custom buttons this time system load is lower :? ; maybe some kind of latency between change and setting update and some kind of race condition with save_config pressed too fast ... don't know

Didn't notice, I was pretty sure to use "save_config" to store the sets of effects ... that's may explain why it sometimes failed
