Session will be saved automatically either saveinterval=0 or >0
What I want, saveinterval equal 0 to skip the save session.
How I can fix it?

Maybe I am not understanding the question. If you want maximum flexibility to save or not to save at any time, leave the interval time at zero and also tick the box so that you are asked at shutdown if you want to save the session or not. If by "skip the save session" you mean not saving anything at all you can choose to do that. Any time you wish to save something you have worked on you can do so by clicking the icon to save manually at that point, or just never click it so you do no manual saves during the session. Setting a number for the save interval will mean that the save process cuts in after that number of minutes, which can happen at a moment when you don't want it to because you are in the middle of doing something.
Or are you saying that something is not working as you would expect?

If by "skip the save session" you mean not saving anything at all you can choose to do that.

Thanks for your reply.
That's what Pupmode13 for to maintain your system the same size(pristine boot). This methode works in easyos, porteus, mxlinux even in M$-Windows.
Now go back to the problem, Pls see the red mark in the attached picture:
Ask at shutdown whether to save or NOT.
If unticked or saveinterval >0,session will be save automatically).
So I set SaveInterval=0 (0=NEVER) and unticked the checkbox and (for testing let say I change the wallpaper) reboot the system.
After the system back on I got changed wallpaper that means save-session was executed.
So SaveInterval=0 (0=NEVER) is NOT working as suppose to be.
All puppy derivatives with pupmode13 have the same problem.

You need to tick the box otherwise it will automatically save at reboot/shutdown (although the greater than 0 should actually be greater or equal to 0) so it is a bit confusing in that sense. When the box is ticked, you will be asked if you want to save at reboot/shutdown. So just tick the box.

It is clear to me 0=NEVER=(Not save anything at shutdown).
Can someone guide me, where is the location/file of the script that I can change >0 to =0 ?
It must work like easyos #3.
Easyos has 3 options:
#1. Yes or Not save #2. Autosave #3. Automatic do not save at shutdown.
Thanks.

No, i don't think you quite understand this.
Scenario 1 - Time interval 0 but the box is NOT ticked = no automatic saves during the session but automatic save at reboot/shutdown. No user option.
Scenario 2 - Time interval 0 and box ticked = no automatic saves during session but user will get an option to save or not at reboot/shutdown. If you do not indicate any option, the default is that changes will NOT be saved. So, if the box is ticked, nothing will be saved unless you click the option to save.

Finally Saveinterval=0=Automatic do NOT save at shutdown is working, that's all what I need it and also working for FatDog.
