Summarize your bug Everytime i close the game and reopens it, it have reset all settings and i have to replay the prologue - it is like i play the game for the first time everytime. After some research i found a work around i have to do every single time i close the game. The prolem is that the game saves its settings in C:\Users\(MY NAME)\Documents\Battlefield V\settings as PROFSAVE_TMP. And if i remove the (_TMP) in that file it remembers correctly what i saved of settings. But when i close it i makes a new PROFSAVE_TMP which it then draws settings from again, and they are default settings. I am looking for a permanent fix
