I am using IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 in my linux pc and I have a problem with the auto-saving. When I close IntelliJ and reopen my IDE, it doesn't save my configuration and shows me this message:

Unable to save settings : Failed to save settings . Please restart IntelliJ IDEA

what should I do for this.

After about 10+ hours of searching the web, I found that when you sign out from your Google account logged in to Android Studio, the errors are gone.

Check the full error in idea.log file (Help | Show Log in ... action). Usually it contains the reason.

It may help to re-open the project using File | New | Project from Existing Sources and select to delete existing project configuration files.
