Why is my UI resetting every game?

I have tried to customise my UI in order to gain some screen real-estate. I also have disabled the option that resets UI (tooltip says to disable in order to customise).

However some widgets simply reset:
- The idle constructors widget resets in size but appears to stay where I put it.
- resource bars resets size and position.
- Selected units widget resets size and probably also position.
- radar resets size, possibly position (unchanged).
- chat resets size and position.
- player-list reappears although I explicitly disabled that widget and I do not want any.
...

Also I have a square or rectangle shaped semi-transparent texture with gray grainy structure in the left part of the screen. On most maps times it only covers the lower left corner, roughly 1/8 of the screen, on some maps such as dsd however it will cover the left half of the screen. This also happens when using the default UI settings but might be related?

I am using the steam version. I tried a clean install, manually deleting all settings. I also turned cloudsync off.

Is this a known bug/behaviour? Any help would be appreciated, many thanks in advance!

As far as I can tell there are 3 things you need to do:
1) Untick "Reset on screen resolution change".
2) Untick "Stay up to date" setting in the same submenu.
3) Change the "UI Preset" setting in the same menu to "None".

The tooltip if the first option says "Disable if you plan to customise your UI" so I assume this is what you did, but that is not enough.

PLrankAdminSprung: In fact I found and changed the first two of that list but not the third! Will try this immediately and tell the result here, thank you very much!

Okay, the third setting definitely had an impact. So far no more troubles. Thx again!
