Of course you can edit your darktablerc with a text editor (backup first, please!)

Every time you leave darktable it saves it's actual status (even the status of the modules) in your *local* darktablerc config file. If within dt retouch module is visible in the groups you which, you then quit dt, relaunch dt, all your settings should be retained. If retouch disappears, you should check if you edited the right file. Possibly you have different versions of darktablerc on your system?

Interesting ..... although retouch is correctly sitting in group-4 and after opening and closing dt it is still correctly in place .... my darktablerc reads as follows:

plugins/darkroom/retouch/expanded=FALSE
plugins/darkroom/retouch/favorite=FALSE
plugins/darkroom/retouch/modulegroup=4
plugins/darkroom/retouch/visible=FALSE

So I now assume that I need to modify darktablerc accordingly.

I also still fail to understand. The appearance of the retouch module is controlled by the lines

*plugins/darkroom/retouch/expanded=TRUE
plugins/darkroom/retouch/favorite=TRUE
plugins/darkroom/retouch/modulegroup=4
plugins/darkroom/retouch/visible=TRUE*

of your local *darktablerc* config file. Generally this file is not modified if you "git clone" / "git pull" and if you (after building and installing) start darktable without command line options.

Wrong diagnosis on my part .... it is occurring whenever I update the git!! (which I am doing on a daily basis and daily I am also creating a new folder) So it is the git update that creates the problem.
