The 'Preload page' option keeps getting disabled after every exit from the browser

Description of the issue:
When i turn the ‘Preload pages’ option it works fine during the browsing as long as I don’t restart the browser if I do so, that option just gets disabled after checking it again.
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Just turn on the option in the settings
  2. restart the browser
  3. you’ll find it got disabled again.

Expected result:
The ‘Preload pages’ option keeps being ‘on’ after restarting the browser.

@yahiaBSK,
To confirm, when you say “preload pages”, you’re referring to this setting here?

No, i mean the option that makes browsing and entering websites more faster than usual:

@yahiaBSK,
Apologies for the confusion.
This is actually a feature that we’re in the process of hiding/disabling entirely, as it is not conducive to user privacy. This is likely why the setting is reset every time you relaunch the browser. I believe in the near future we will be removing this from the browser entirely.

oh i see. it’s a good feature though, it makes real difference when it come to open the websites faster. anyway, thank you a lot to clarify this.
