Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: 2.5.1
PHP version: 5.3.3-7+squeeze3
MySQL version: 5.1.49-3
Host: Linux Debian
Admin Tools version: 2.2.0

Description of my issue: I am trying to save my settings in Options - set Minimum release stability for update notifications to Stable.
Press Save - it reports "Configuration successfully saved", close the window, exit Admin Tools, go back to Admin tools, re-open Options and the setting is back on "Alpha".

Please note that these configuration values are not handled by Admin Tools, but Joomla! itself. There seems to be a Joomla! bug regarding saving the values of selection boxes. I can see the same thing on Joomla! 2.5.1. I don't have a solution at this time.

Many thanks - will you report this bug into the appropriate Joomla channels, please?

I tried to reproduce it, but this time it worked. I suggest installing the component package again (without uninstalling first), then try setting it to Stable. After 1-2 retries it will certainly work. I'm not sure what caused the problem the first time I tried and on your site, but for whatever reason it appears to have been temporary in my case.
