What i do is restart it on my own:
1) Change settings
2) Exit the sim
3) Launch the sim again

This way i have never had an issue with settings not being kept.
Still no joy-
1.) I change the settings -esp "shadows"ff.
2.) I get a box saying I MUST exit game for settings to work.
3.) I say yes- auto reboot.
4.) Game starts old settings back...
Now I've tried it by manually turning off game in task manager;with Cloud off & on ,& on & off line all with the same results: nada .Could it be I've got to go into config & find shadows & other stuff & handle it there? I hestitate to do so...afterall Options settings should work...
