Disable Save States

[windg]

RaspberryPi model: Pi 3B
RetroPie Version Used : version 4.5.1 with latest updates

I want to disable the option for save/load states. How i can do this?

Modify the controller's configuration file from /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads and disable/remove the lines for save/load states. Note that if you re-configure your controller in EmulationStation, the configuration file(s) will be re-created and the lines will be added back.

Thank you !

Just for interest: what about activating the "hardcore-mode" in Retroachievments?
AFAIR this also disables the save and load-options.
Are these options also reactivated if you remap your inputs?

Finally i get rid of save/load state functionality. i change the following:

1- This is for the gamepad.

From/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads
i remove the lines for save/load states.

2- This is for the keybord.

From /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg
i change the lines from

# input_save_state = f2
# input_load_state = f4
to
input_save_state = f22
input_load_state = f44

3- This is to hide save/load state option, in rgui quick menu.

i add to the/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

the line quick_menu_show_save_load_state = "false"
