  I guess you trying to use a profile which has Contact, Contact Type and Contact Sub Type Fields. The search preference allows you to choose profiles that have fields of contact and contact type. I have logged the issue at [CRM-21655](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21655). You can apply [patch](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11511) to make it work or wait for 4.7.31.
