Description
### Tested versions
v3.6.stable.official [de2f0f147]
### System information
w10 64
### Issue description
Files added to favorites as a script disappear from favorites after a few editor restarts and computer shutdowns. I can't say when exactly they do, but it's obvious that they disappear.
Folders can also disappear, although it seems less frequent. It just happened to me right now.

### Steps to reproduce
Add a script as a favorite.
Use the editor as normal.
Check after a while that the file remains as a favorite.
### Minimal reproduction project (MRP)

Research direction
No source files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by reproducing the favorite-file and favorite-folder loss across editor restarts and Windows shutdowns, then trace where editor favorites are stored and restored. Done means favorites persist reliably after these restarts.
