Accidentally set graphics too high, cannot boot up game
I played the game, my specs are on minimum and it's still lagged, so I just decided to open the menu and try to lower my VRAM, but the more lower I do - the most laggy it is, so I decided to change the graphic performance video adapter to my intel or something, which cost a full red bar on my vram, i changed it anyway - and now my game crashes, i tried reinstalling the whole game and it's still the same, it won't budge, i'll need some help here.

Zero point to do that, It will never help in cases like yours, because normally reinstalling doesn't remove the game settings folder, which is located in your Windows user folder.

Press 'Win + E' to open windows file explorer, press 'Ctrl + L' to navigate to the address bar, and copy and paste this path to the game settings folder:
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Watch Dogs Legion\

Open the game settings file
WD3_GamerProfile.xml

Find and change this setting inside:
AdapterIndex="0"

If yours is set to 0. change it to 1. if yours is set to 1, change it to 0. Close the file and save changes. The game will use different gfx adapter next time you launch it.

If it doesn't help, just rename or delete WD3_GamerProfile.xml file, you will loose all your current settings. But the game should create a new one, hopefully this time with the correct parameters in it.

Hey Varioo!

Did KenTWOu's steps help you modify the graphics setting?
Can you launch the game now?
