Perhaps you looking at the code base?

FormPreferences simply removes the converter from the list of converters 
available to this session. It cannot, therefore, write this info to file. I 
understand that converter supports "none". If, instead of erasing the entry, 
it was "none"-d, then that might work.

I'm not going to try however. If interested have a go.

bool FormPreferences::Converters::erase()
{
        string const from = GetFrom();
        string const to = GetTo();

        local_converters.erase(from, to);
        UpdateBrowser();
        return true;
}
