That does not have any immediate effects. That only saves the settings for
newly opened PDFs in the future. So you probably saved that with a tiny zoom
factor. You can choose that with a larger zoom factor, or with Automatically
Resize checked. Or you can set the default settings in the General preferences.

When it is checked, then the PDF view should just resize the PDF to fit the
view.

Then you probably reset some setting.

There are different controls for different functions.And they are controlled in
the appropriate places for the function.
