Krita menu order suddenly changed

Hi, brand new to Krita. I installed 2.5.6 and worked my way through a few options and settings. Then, all of a sudden, the order of the menus changed, and the order of items in the Settings menu changed.
I re-installed Krita, but it did not revert to the original. So I installed it on a second computer and there I see the original/familiar menu order.

Screenshot attached. At the top is the new, changed menu order, at the bottom the out of the box menu order. What have I done to create that change? How can I revert back to the original menu order, with, for e.g. “Configure Krita” at the top of the Settings menu?

Windows 11, all updates up to scratch

The same thing happened to me on Windows, I think it was 5.2.2 at the time. I’m on a new device now with a fresh install of Krita and the menu is in the right order.

You might want to add which OS you’re on in your question.

I dug through my Windows profile and deleted the Krita folder in C:\Users\myName\AppData\Roaming\krita
After that, I did a total uninstall, then installed back from the installer.

Now everything is back to normal.

I think what may have happened is it was caused by me clicking Settings > Reset all settings. Either that, or me clicking Settings > Configure Krita > Restore Defaults.

One of these.

But I would expect a reset or a revert back to default to arrive at the out of the box state instead of totally re-ordered menus.

Anyway, no further action require. Thanks for reading.
