You should post which file and folder was that and which line. This way you save others time.

Yeah, sure.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\F.E.A.R. 3\options.cfg" this is the file.

find this line :

# Override FOV for narrow aspect ratio displays. Range 65 (narrow) to 85 (wide).
#-fov: 75

Delete "#" and set your fov.
Here is what i did. Works fine for me:

# Override FOV for narrow aspect ratio displays. Range 65 (narrow) to 85 (wide).
-fov: 101

[Molod]

Make changes in options.cfg like I said above and make this file "read only", maybe it would help.

Could you please post before and after screenshots?

You can simply add "-fov:101" to the Launch Options in steam menu. That works, too.
