I'm using Toad 17.0
When Toad restarts it always has a tab stop setting of 4 spaces regardless of what it was set to previously.
I set it to 2, apply, exit and restart Toad. It goes back to 4.
This is an issue that was resolved in 17.0 Patch 1. It sounds like you are using an unpatched version. The Help | About screen will tell you. I believe the initial 17.0 release was version 17.0.351. Here is the patched info.
From the 17.0 Patch 1 Release Notes...
Thanks, I figured it was already fixed.
Unfortunately I may not be able to download the patch as we are no longer on support contract.
Try this. With Toad closed, open Toad.ini in text Editor. It is in your appdata\User Files folder. The appdata location is shown in Toad's Options on the Files and Folder | App Folder page.
Locate the [EDITOR_SETTINGS] section. Remove the TAB_MODE and EDITOR_TAB_STOPS lines if you have them.
Add these lines to the [EDITOR_SETTINGS] section...
TAB_MODE=0
EDITOR_TAB_STOPS=4
Save the file and open Toad.

The lines were already there. I set it to what I wanted and now Toad opens with that value.
Thanks!
