Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. With ED running, also install and start EDN
2. Wait while EDN syncs for first login

### Outcome

I expected EDN to start and run alongside ED, without interference.

Instead, after EDN synced for a while, I noticed ED's Home room list had stopped showing all rooms. Investigating ED's settings, I saw that many of them had been reset.

### Operating system

macos sonoma

### Application version

ED 1.11.78 and EDN 2024092401

### How did you install the app?

https://element.io/download > Element Nightly

### Homeserver
