A known issue is that the timer does not display the correct time when one uses the PowerPoint ‘Back’ feature to return to a slide. The reason for this is that PowerPoint does not inform the add-in that the slideshow has moved backwards to the current slide.
I hope to find a workaround to this problem but I don’t have a schedule for it.
Thank you for your compliments about the TM Timer add-in.
The settings are reset by design when PowerPoint closes. I am open to changing the design though I will not make any promise about when or even if that will happen.

From an email from Michael R:
Hi, I have been looking for a Powerpoint Countdown Tmer and found yours while googling.
I tried it and I must say that it is a good product.
Just one problem I am facing …..
Each time I close the powerpoint file all timer settings are lost. So I have to go to the TM ribbon and set it again.
Is this a bug?
Thanks.
