[GNC] Lost all settings after Flatpak update

Hi,

I am a Debian user and install Gnucash using Flatpak. I think Flatpak is
setup to update automatically and the latest version of Gnucash seems to
have been installed as of March 28th.

When I started Gnucash I was presented with the typical popup tips and
dialogs to set up a new user file from scratch.  The system did not
remember any of my recently used files.  When I opened a recent gnucash
file it loaded but all my settings are gone. For instance my tabs are
all horizontal at the top of the screen rather than vertically to the left.

Do you know whether it is normal for Flatpak updates to case user
settings to be lost?  Is there a way to restore my previous settings?

Thanks,

Ken
