What mechanism have you used to save your settings? What code are you using to load them? Where is the code not behaving as expected?

Please update your question to include a sensible snippet of code which shows your problem.

Then try using google to research saving settings in a windows form application. Give it a go and if you get stuck. Come back and ask a question about where you're stuck.
