I have to use two different releases of catia (B20&B22) for two projects on same computer. If I set in example favorite workbenches with accelerators in B22, and then close it, and open B20 and make same settings there, and close, open again B22, there is everything reset, and also in B20 after that.
I did enter path for CATReferenceSettingPath, and CATCollectionStandards folders (for both releases), but I guess that isn't enough to keep user defined workbenches and layouts when switching from one to the other?

You also need to separate the user settings. By default it is C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Application Data\DassaultSystemes\CATSettings
In the environment file set CATUserSettingPath=
to a different folder for each version.

My setting below.
CATUserSettingPath=K:\CatiaApps\Settings\Users\%USERNAME%\R20\CATSettings
