Intel XTU cannot maintain my settings and reverts to unlimited - very scary!

[kodo_nosaki]

Although Intel XTU had retained my custom tuning Profile, my Monitoring setup, and my Ratio/Voltage Tuning Mode as Per Core; both Turbo Boost Short Power Max, and Turbo Boost Power Max defaulted to Unlimited with Turbo Boost Time Window maxed at 8 seconds!!!   This  has happened before but I just happened to check Intel XTU and corrected the Core Active Settings.   Intel XTU is only suitable for a constantly monitored hard core gaming computer.   

Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, is Unreliable for a home desktop computer.   I will try the same tuning using the UEFI-BIOS.
