Describe the improvement
On every start of UniGetUI import the settings from a specified json-file.
Describe how this improvement could help users
This would be useful if you want to deploy (changes of) settings to multiple machines, which all have access to a shared network drive, cloud drive, ... One would just have to export the desired settings from one machine to a .json file on a network drive, which is automatically imported by all other machines at application start.

Wouldn't this be better implemented with some kind of control panel, or allowing UniGetUI to subscribe to some local server that would manage settings as well as available managers and sources?
I would find the loading of a settings JSON as a command line switch to be useful at least. I feel like the current command line option for program bundle could be changed to require a preceding switch, and then there could be another switch for a settings file.
This would make UniGetUI more convenient for use in a portable context. (I currently need to launch UniGetUI, go to the settings view, press Import Settings, find & select the file buried amongst all the program files, and restart UniGetUI.) Perhaps there could be a default settings JSON filename, so that if that file exists in the program root it is loaded automatically unless UniGetUI is launched with the settings file argument.
