Spieleinstellungen speichern nicht / Game settings do not save
Mein Problem ist dass die Einstellungen die ich im Spiel mache nicht gespeichert werden.

z.B. Skallierung oder Zoom

My problem is that the settings I make in the game are not saved.

e.g. Scaling or zoom

Same issue. That's really annoying, having all the time to set these options again and again.

I even tried to modify the settings.ini in the config folder, but the game keeps rewriting it with default values

Did you also try to set the file to read-only?

For me, the files were already read-only, I changed then, because I thought it was but without effect

Excuse me but...where the hell do you have this settings.ini ?!

I cannot find any .ini file at all, or settings, or even config folder.


Thanks !

It's not located in the same directory where your game is installed (for whatever reason).

This is where my settings.ini file is located:

C:\user\<username>\Games\Age of Empires DE\Config\settings.ini

Omg THANK YOU so much !

It's funny, I searched for this in the game's folder, in my documents, even in appdata where a lot of games save their profiles there...nowhere to be found.

What a stupid place to put them in "Games"...I didn't even know there WAS such a folder on my PC lol. Guess what, only Microsoft games save there, of course !


PS: Maybe I can try to force the game to let me use x4 zoom without 16 GB of RAM ! *fingers crossed*

Thanks again !
