Recent (Save Files) - Change Default Settings to OneDrive

Hello -
Thanks for the return. Before I undertake changing the Registry, I have a question.
The steps in my Registry, for my version of Windows 10, were a bit different, but I think I eventually got to the right spot.
The last step is to change the number of places you want to list in Recent Places. In my case, the default Max Display listed 50 as the number. So, if I were to change that number, how do I know the Save As page will be one of those places? Or, a similar question, will this registry change delete the tab Recent from my Save As page? This is what I would like to happen.
When I received my computer in Nov. 2016, the Recent tab was not listed in the Save As page. Something caused it to be added over time. Which brings me to this second question. Would there be any benefit in deleting the changed registry listing and reverting back to the default listing? See attachment.

When I upload photos or updates to Facebook, the default privacy setting is "only me".

First, I would strongly suggest filing out this report to
file a privacy issue with Facebook.

Windows Phone should use the privacy settings set on Facebook. Some steps to try to get this account back in a good state…

• Go to the
  Facebook Privacy Settings page.
• Toggle from “Friends” to “Custom” to “Public” and back again to “Friends”. The simple action of toggling the privacy settings may reset the inheritance. This may take several times for the specific settings to stick from browser and then finally sync to
  the phone.
• After each change, go to Settings > Email+Accounts, tap-and-hold Facebook and tap Sync.
  

Or, if that doesn’t work try this…

• Go to Facebook.com and log in from your PC.
• On the top-right of the page, click the downward arrow next to Home and click Account Settings.
• Click Security. Next to Secure Browsing, click Edit and deselect “Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) when possible”.Note: this is just temporary, you can change it back after you complete the rest of the steps below.
• Go to the Windows Phone on Facebook page:
  http://apps.facebook.com/7933375107/?ref=ts. Note: it will appear like an empty page, but refresh it a number of times until…
• When you go to http://facebook.com you see the “Windows Phone” app on the left-hand sidebar under APPS.
• Click the pencil icon next to “Windows Phone” and click Edit Settings. Scroll down to “Posts on your behalf” and ensure it’s set appropriately.

OR, try this:

• On your computer (not your phone), go to:
  https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications.
• Click "Edit" next to "Old versions of Facebook for mobile". Make sure this is set to Friends, Custom, or Public (whatever your desired privacy state is).

Let us know if this works or not.
