Thank you for your contribution.
Restart warning looks good, besides two typos.
I'm not 100 % sure, but I believe the test is probably interfering with the permanent preferences of JabRef. @tobiasdiez @Siedlerchr ?

While testing is normally important, I fear in this case you actually permanently set the preferences to true instead of testing the logic.

The test actually does not make any sense. You are just testing that a boolean variable is set in the preferences. This is useless and totally unrelated to your changes.
if you want to write a test, you need to test the View Model to check if your changed are correctly applied. But that's more complicated.
Manual testing should be enough. In jabref we focus on writing tests for important logic or other parts and not just writing tests for the sake of coverage.
So please remove your test.

Yeah, you are right. That test makes no sense for this issue. This was my early attempt while locating the code. It is really kind for you to point it out as well as two typos. Thanks. And I am still learning Github and its features.

This is a good start. Since there was no activity since a few weeks and there are minor things to fix to get this ready, we will take over here. Thank you for having been part at the JabRef development. |

I took the liberty to finish this one in another PR, your work is preserved an we will give you credit in the next release of JabRef. Thank you for your work! |
To make auto complete settings come into effect, restart is needed. I add dialog box when someone change the auto complete settings, to remind him restart the software.
