I can’t check this on the Cubase now, but I guess, the Generic Remote is saved with the project. Isn’t it?
I mean, if you use your own settings in the project, save it and open again, you will get your settings. If you open new empty project, you will get factory Generic Remote, because there si this factory Generic Remote in the Empty Project template.
But again, I can’t check it, now. I just guess. Can you check it yourself, please?
