      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.

          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"

            My English isn't at a good level.
