Editing the file manually will give you random results as the file is

"~/Library/Application Support/Cyberduck", but new iMac settings still
keep exist when I moved a new copy of Cyberduck into Application and
launch it...

ourselves but only through the system frameworks provided. Therefore there
is not much I can do here expect to advice to quit ''Cyberduck'' before
replacing the preferences.
I just don't understand why Cyberduck don't read the preferences plist
from Preferences folder from app start...(It did when it first time
launch, I think maybe there no settings cached in systems...)
