Settings not being saved (opera and windows)

I've tried changing the amount of tabs I can open simultaneously in opera:config but after a soft reset it reverts back to only 2 (which isn't nearly enough). Does anyone know how that is happening?
The same goes for a change to the keyboard settings. Ive tried editing eT9.Rhodium.kmap.txt so the mail button is set to Tab, but a fsoft reset reverts that change as well.
Anyone an idea?

I had the same issue with mine. I kept changing the setting and eventually it stayed at 5 tabs. Not sure what I did differently other than I was persistent.

If you want it to work you need to kill the opera process completely because on the TP2 it is always running due to the push internet. Several ways to do so. I used this method.

Install the cab. Reset your device. Open Opera and change the settings you want. Exit Opera. Open again to check if settings are saved. If not, change settings, exit opera, restart device. Now the settings should be saved. You can now uninstall the cab or keep it if you like it.
Let me know if it works for you.

I had that issue a while back. I've since given up on going into opera:config.
I find it much easier to just copy the opera.ini file over to my desktop, edit it accordingly, and then copy it back. Try it out. It's not as daunting as it sounds.

I'm a little confused, I don't see anywhere in Opera where you can change the number of tabs. Do I have to go into a separate app to change the Opera settings? I'm stuck at 2 tabs which is worthless.

Delete Lockscreen/Only Password

Hello.
Is it possible to remove the lockscreen on my W8Pro?
I only want to see the password input, when i lock my laptop.

There is a group policy somewhere, I can't recall the direct location. I'll look later if I can find it again, I did exactly what you are searching for.

Found the group policy! Just open the GPO (fire up a run dialog, type gpedit.msc and press Enter) and navigate to Computerconfiguration -> Administrative Templates -> Control Panel -> Personalization and enable(!) the policy named "Do not display the lockscreen". That's all!

I'm curious, why do you want to do this? If you didn't know, you can just click or press any button to dismiss the lockscreen, you don't actually have to drag it up.

That's works! Nice, Thank you!!

I setup an autoconfig for when I install windows on different systems (or reformat) which disables it through the registry. This also works if you have a non-pro version of windows 8, which doesn't include the group policy editor. Likewise, it is also simpler than hunting through gpedit.
The attached file is part of my autoconfig with only the lock screen part included. Rename it from a .txt to a .reg, double click, enjoy.

Keeps asking what app to use

Recently got a galaxy S7 edge. I've installed all available updates. For some reason I am constantly asked what program to use when I want to open any type of document such as a pdf. I am given a choice of 3 of the stock applications and Adobe PDF which I installed.
When I am presented with the app options there is no "once" or "always" option. Instead when I select one app I get the message that app is now the default app and to change it go to Setting--->applications......blah blah to clear the default app. I have been to the default app under setting and see that PDF are set by default to be open by Adobe PDF. So why must I still select what app to use when I want to open a pdf file (even the same file)? Is my phone corrupted since I am not getting the "just once" or "always"? I want to open pdf full with a single program every time instead of it always asking me.

This was recently changed, As once you selected your app, there was no way to select another application without clearing the defaults (Rather messy and time consuming)
To change the default setting head to:
Settings -> Applications -> Default Applications -> DEFAULT APP SELECTION:
Set Default Apps Automatically (Will auto set the first app you select to default)
Ask Before setting Default App (Brings back the traditional Just Once / Always (Option))
Failing these settings, Maybe one of the application for the PDF wants to be set as default, Try uninstalling them?
Does it happen with any other application?
Download a video and install VLC. select a video app and see if the derault sticks.
Keep in mind, sometimes if you have a default PDF app selected, The app is updated, you will be asked to select again (Some times)
Additionally if you install another PDF application, then the App selection may re-appear (If a default is selected already)
(Sorry if this is abit messy, lack of coffee this morning)

Settings -> Applications -> Default Applications -> DEFAULT APP SELECTION:
Set Default Apps Automatically (Will auto set the first app you select to default)
Ask Before setting Default App (Brings back the traditional Just Once / Always (Option))"
Unfortunately I don't see the "Set Default Apps Automatically" or "Ask Before setting Default App" option in Settings -> Applications -> Default Applications -> DEFAULT APP SELECTION
Seems like that would work great, but they're not there.
I did try to Reset App Preferences however any PDF file I get asked how I want to open it every time. Even under App setting it shows Adobe as the default. I tried reinstalling Adobe but still didn't help. I have a couple documents that I routinely access and it gets to be a pain.
Thanks for the assistance, of you have any other ideas I'm all ears. I'm almost wondering that if I don't have those options you state above than maybe I need a system reset???

[NST/G] Slide to Unlock feature is where?

Working on a paring down of the B&N system to just make the Library, Reader and Dictionary functional. I think I've actually got it (haven't taken a look under the hood yet via adb to see what's going on....) but I am puzzled by the absence of the "slide to unlock" feature.
I've rooted using NookManager on FW 1.2.2. I know that's not the issue because I've done another device already and the slide to unlock works on that one. I've checked, unchecked and rechecked (etc.) the option in Nook Touch ModManager to enable the slide to unlock, but this seems to have no effect.
So I'm guessing some system app I've excluded governs this. Anyone have any idea what it might be? These are my current system apps:
ApplicationsProvider
CertInstaller
CryptoServer
Home
HTMLViewer
LatinIME
Library
MediaProvider
Packageinstaller
Phone
ReaderRMSDK
Settings
SettingsProvider
ThumbnailService
UserDictionaryProvider

Junsun V1 2GB + 32GB Home Screen widget Question

Hello everyone I had a couple of questions regarding this unit here. Is there a way to edit or remove this annoying widget on the home screen so I can add more apps? It tells me there is no more room to add apps on this screen. Also is there updated firmware for this unit. I attached screenshots of the device info.

Hello, today I was digging in the settings vein, it is entered with code 8888, and I changed some settings and the media stopped keeping the settings after I turned off the car and it stood for about 3-4 hours after starting, all settings are reset and the original view of the media appears, I do not remember the language in which it was set, the exchanged icons, does anyone have a picture of the original settings of this menu which opens with code 8888?This is the menu.
