When I try to edit the config file using task manager, I can find the file and code for all configuration, but I do not have access to the file.

Did you install Okular from the Microsoft Store?

Which configuration in particular you can't save?

Do you have more than one okular opened while trying to change the configuration?

1. Yes, from Microsoft Store
2. Yesterday, all configurations can not be remembered including the size/position of the window, just like I first use it.
Then I tried to change the access of windowsapps directory to be 'NT Service/Trustedinstaller', it seems that configurations are remembered now.
3. No, only one window.

However, there is still a bug. When I turn on 'open file in a new tab', it does not function well when I double click the file in the file browser(it still opens a new window). But it can function when I open a file in 'File-open' in Okular.

Opening in a new tab not working on Windows is a known bug, it's been reported several times, needs someone with time to fix it.

The rest i understand it was a local issue on your computer and is now fixed, so closing the bug.
