Right click on the column header and select "Customize Column Sets..." and then select the "[Default]" column set.
Then click on the change button under the list of column to modify what columns to show, When you done then press "Save Changes" How this column setup will be used as default.

Normally it will remember last folder you was in and keep that. But if you want the same path always to be shown you can send then as parameters to the program.
You edit the shortcut for MultiCommander.exe and add to the -L="path left" -R="path right"
for more command line option check the online doc here

Sir, when I go to menu > configuration > Keyboard customization > Explorer Panel and select Edit - Compare Folders Select Newest/Missing and remove Existing key then enter new hotkey then assign and save, it is not saved permanently. When I close and restart Multi Commander, This option does not show new assigned hotkey.

By default it is using the date and time format defined in Windows. But you can override that in

Menu > Configuration > Explorer Panel Settings > Layout (Tab)

Scroll down to Date / Time format

There you can check "Use custom date and time format" and then change the format there below.

When you makes change in keyboard customization the configuration file : CustomKeymappings.xml  is created/change.
Look in your configuration folder if that file exists. and if it is changes when you do a change.

To find the config folder goto
Menu > Help > Goto > Config Folder

Sir, I went to Use Custom date and time format option. It showed checked and has only two sub-options. yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm which are fixed. There is no option to add or replace or delete them. Tell me how do I change to d/M/yy H:mm.

Yes Sir, CustomKeymappings.xml changed and it works.

Also edit desktop shortcut for MultiCommander.exe works fine Sir.
