To change a setting just once, navigate to the specific settings menu on your device or application. Adjust the desired setting temporarily and ensure not to save if the option is present. This way, the change will apply for the current session only without affecting future settings. For example, lower the volume for a temporary period but do not hit ‘Save’ or ‘Apply’ if you wish it to revert back automatically.
