Whenever I open codeblocks and use terminal to run a code the terminal always resets to the xterm terminal even though i had set it to gnome before, I am working on latest version of Linux Mint. How do I fix this?

Most probably none of the settings are being saved.
There are at least two reasons I know of:
1. The config file has incorrect permissions. See ~/.config/codeblocks/default.conf
2. CB is crashing on exit.

One thing you could try is to use the File -> Save everything command.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

Thankyou, changing the permissions worked!
