Program Options include your preferences that you set in the Options dialog.

Program Commands include your preferences that you set in the Customize Commands dialogs.

Mark the Delete all existing sessions checkbox to erase all of your stored sessions before importing those in the file.  Likewise, mark Delete all existing file formats or Delete all existing FTP profiles if you wish.
