Re: Apex always resetting video settings

@BrightFern Could you share a DxDiag with us? Also if you try to manually adjust your settings do they not save?

  • Hiya! Thanks for the speedy reply. I'm trying to post my DxDiag for you, but It won't let me post past 60k characters. I tried using hastebin as well. I'm hoping the attachment will work.

    @BrightFern Thank you for sharing I don't see anything that may give an issue, Do you have any running security to allow Origin and Apex through the see if changing your setting will permanently save?
  • @EA_Illium Thanks for taking a look! I just use Windows Defender and Firewall. I'll take a look in those settings to see if Origin and Apex is allowed.
  • @EA_Illium Hiya! So it looks like I didn't have Origin allowed through my firewall, so I went ahead and added it to the last. Unfortunately that didn't fix my problem.
  • @EA_Illium Hi again! Sorry for the slight spam but I found a solution!

    You have to go to C:\Users\<Whatever Your Username is>\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local

    Right click videoconfig.txt>Properties then uncheck the read only box.
