My indicators modifications do not save...please help!

 
I'm having that problem where my input settings do not stay. For example, when I change the Aroon Up Down indicator from 14 to 11, then I reopen it immediately, it will go back to 14. Please help. I've even tried saving the settings on my laptop, then loading them afterwards. The inputs change, but as soon as I close and reopen them, the default settings come right back. I close my MT4 each time I add a new algorithm just as instructed. i'm at a loss because I don't know what else to try.
 

You can save templates with the indicator loaded with the settings that you want.

You do not need to close the platform if you add a new indicator/EA file. In Navigator right click on Indicators and click refresh. (Obviously Experts for EAs)
