Short description of error
When using Load Factory Settings it should skip autosave. However this skip autosave state is cleared after opening another .blend file.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Change e.g. Interface > Display > Resolution Scale in the preferences.
Open a .blend file.
Quit.
Restart Blender and preferences will have been saved.

I can't redo this error, I've tried --factory-startup, resetting from file menu, resetting from the preferences menu.

Then opening a file from the file selector & recently opened files list.

Also clearing ~/.config/blender path and re-creating preferences just in case some local change caused it to work, still no luck.

From what I can see this should never happen because all file reading goes via WM_file_read, which keeps all G_FLAG_ALL_RUNTIME flags set as-is (which includes G_FLAG_USERPREF_NO_SAVE_ON_EXIT).

I can't reproduce it now either, I must have made a mistake.
