Hmm... I don't know if you as a regular user are allowed to change, or even
view, the profile settings as this is a domain admin Active
Directory-privilege. I still insist och checking with your Sysadmin on this.

You can however check your downloaded profile on your own computer for a
file called ntuser.man. If it's there, your user account is using a
mandatory profile and no changes will be saved, while if there is a
ntuser.dat file, any settings you make to your profile will/should be saved
upon logoff.
