I think not, though I can understand the confusion. I believe this is
the difference between the two:

The check box in File » Properties » Accounts controls what happens in
the current book. The check box in Edit » Preferences » General controls
whether that box is checked automatically when you create a new book,
and has no impact on the present book.

Or at least, that's how I read the wording next to the boxes.
