1) Have you read https://musescore.org/en/handbook/synthesizer? When you say "I did save," I assume you mean you used the "Save to Score" button. If so, then you're just forgetting you need to use the "Load from Score" button next time. Or, use the "Set as Default" button, and you'll be good to go for the future.
2) See https://musescore.org/node/13734.

I'm afraid I can't help you with the details of using Polyphone (ChurchOrganist has some experience), but see https://musescore.org/en/node/36171#install for the default SoundFont location.

Actually I am primarily a Viena user, and only have a very basic working knowledge of Polyphone, but I will try to guide you as much as I can.
Viena has the ability to import presets directly from any soundfont, and so is a much better tool for merging soundfonts than Polyphone, which doesn't appear to have this - certainly not in the version I have installed anyway.
One thing to be wary of when you are trying to combine soundfonts is the overwriting of presets which actually you want to keep.
A certain amount of preparation is required where you edit the soundfonts you intend to merge so that the sounds are in Banks which will not overwrite presets you wish to keep.
The sf2 version of the default soundfont is currently always available from my DropBox account - latest version link is here...

The default soundfont has an MIT licence which by definition will also apply to any soundfonts you may derive from it.
Hope This Helps

so, just got reply from creator of polyphone, and it says can't do more than 127 instruments....
WHY IS FLUID SO LARGE
In reply to so, just got reply from by KeldeoClub
Because it is a GS Soundfont :)
To clarify does he mean 127 instruments or 127 presets?

Maybe you should look at Polyphontics
Proprietary but doesn't cost an arm and a leg :)
