OK, I assume that I should restart or at least log out and back in when I change system settings.
Usually I'm following instructions that I found online and they tell you what to do there. I definitely don't go into Group Policy and edit things all willy-nilly.
This seems to be the case on many OSes. I was documenting my workstation setup recently and I'll share one entry here:
### Firefox opening to manjaro.org instead of new-tab
- Look for settings in Firefox to disable this. No findeee!
- Search the net to discover others talking about this. Many say just
uninstall `manjaro-browser-settings`.
- Remove `manjaro-browser-settings`.
- Failure: Firefox still behaves the same.
- Decide to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. However, I will install
Chrome first.
- Use _Add/Remove Software_ app preferences to enable AUR repository,
then refresh databases.
- Install Chrome from AUR. It works.
- Uninstall Firefox and reinstall it.
- Success: Firefox no longer opens to manjaro.org.
- (There might have been a reboot somewhere in there - it doesn't
hurt to sprinkle them in randomly when
practicing voodoo computing!)
Also it seems like with this OS, if I don't reboot after an update or changing certain settings - things start breaking.
Maybe one day, we'll have the perfect OS! But as far as I know it doesn't exist yet. :)
