In the Import/Export Module Default Settings dialog, if the Import File Name And Path text box is empty you get an error telling you so if you try to click anything else, including the Cancel button and the browse button next to Import File Name And Path

Fix - none

Workaround for Cancel - Hit the escape key to exit if you want to cancel. (Won't work if you have typed something in the blank in question and deleted it.)

Workaround for Browse ([...]) - type anything in the blank before browsing.

Desired behavior (suggestion for the programmers) - only give the error message when the user clicks Save, and make it just a warning, allowing users who don't import to leave it blank.

There is also at least one other error message in this dialog that pops up & blocks access to the form rather than just the Save button. It refers to a reserved file name. There could very well be others and they should all be fixed per the suggestion above. Reserved file names and other illegal settings should, of course, result in an error message blocking saving rather than just a warning.
