I want to set the default FPX library when the program opens to be my library, not the one supplied with the software.

The option seems to be greyed out and won't let me make any changes.

V25.10

V25.10 was released last night 10/5/25. 

If to open 'Tools > Options' you should either select 'Open' to open your existing .opt file or 'Save As > Your Master Option Name (whatever). 

You cannot edit the 'Internal Defaults". You must create your own Option file and that will turn on all the settings. 

You can also create multiple Option files with different settings and use the same FPX library to autogenerate multiple libraries with different preferences. 

Once you create your Master Option file, select FPX Library File and point to your FPX library. 

Sample FPX is only a place holder until you create your personal FPX library file. 

Let us know if this works for you.
