Going into Options-General seems to be a quite common activity
to adjust a programs behaviour.

It does, but only for *that* particular run.

Well you are *QUITE* out of date ;-)

tlmgr update --all should do the trick.

CORRIECRAVIE (n.)
To avert the horrors of corrievorrie (q.v.) corriecravie is usually
employed. This is the cowardly but highly skilled process by which
both protagonists continue to approach while keeping up the pretence
that they haven't noticed each other - by staring furiously at their
feet, grimacing into a notebook, or studying the walls closely as if
in a mood of deep irritation.
