eddie-cli seems to be forgetting

[glitchgod 0]

Simple old computer, Ubuntu Desktop 24.04.4lts that is now my media server, Jellyfin.
It DID have Eddie-gui installed when it had a working GPU, gpu got damaged while installing a new HDDso switch to the IGPU. Eddie refused to boot noting missing gtk, audio drivers, and something else i cant remember, and so i purge uninstalled the eddie-gui. Switched to Eddie-cli from the actual download page (not the one that came with Eddie-gui). 

So the command im running is as followed and does connect and runs fine

eddie-cli -login=********* -password='*********' connect --server='Helvetios'  --netlock --remember --event.vpn.up.filename='qbittorrent' --log.file.enabled

Log is as followed (after changing the command alot )

so i wanted to see what was in the default profile

 nano /home/hp-printer/.config/eddie/default.profile  

and got just a jumble of symbols, so i guess i cant edit it manually?
Am i miss understanding the settings?
