How do I "Permanently" save my Thunderbird 52.7.0 (32-bit) inbox e-mails View in "order of date received" with the newest on top and "in decending order?"

Each time I set my view inbox e-mails in order of date received with the newest on top and in descending order, the View order reverts back to Date and Ascending Order. Once set I want it to stay.

Thunderbird opens just like you closed it unless you have software like CCleaner thinking it knows better and erasing your prefs files.
