Tool Options windows position not remembered

[DrNukular]

Thanks rich2005 for the help and effort.

Actually before closing Gimp, the Tool Options should be left of the docks, as in image no. 3. That should be the final and desired state.

I've tried again saving the positions at exit as recommended in no. 6, but without any luck. The positions are still being reverted upon restart as in no. 5 (not desired).

Hope you can follow with what I mean. I still have no idea why this is the "default" state.
