Lol then how is he supposed to charge the camera if he can't take out the battery?

You just joined to answer to a 2 year old entry. Welcome to the forum!

I guess you don't understand. I was talking about talking out the battery and leave the camera without battery for many days without battery. The buffer capacitor, buffer battery what ever they use will discharge over time and the settings are lost. Not all all devices store the settings in flash memory.

Charge the battery and put it back into the camera. Problem solved. And no I have not tried if my X100F still does the same. I see no reason to remove the battery from my camera when I don't use it.
