Today Everything automatically updated to the following version: Version 1.4.1.988 (Tuesday, 4 August 2020).
Now all (shortcuts, excluded files, ticked setting checkboxes, custom colors) my user settings are gone except for my filters and bookmarks.

Please check if you have a backup of your Everything.ini, you may wish to search for this file in Everything.
Check if any Everything.ini contains your shortcuts/excluded files/custom colors
To load Everything.ini files:

Re: User settings gone after recent update
I fixed it manually on the same day by reimplementing my settings. The only existing backup files are those from after I did that.
But thank you for the reply. I now know how to fix this if it ever happens again.
