Everytime I go into siege i have to change my screen size and change my controls back to where i want it to be.. Does anybody know how to fix this??

I've had this issue a couple of times across multiple Ubi games. Sometimes a settings file on your PC gets corrupted and the game can't read your file any more so it defaults to hard-coded defaults.

Look in your My Documents folder for a subfolder named for your game. In it you'll find a bunch of .ini or .cfg or other plain text files. You should be able to read them in notepad.

Look through each of the files and identify each one that mentions anything about graphics settings. Back up those files in a .zip file then delete the originals. The game should recreate them with default values the next time you start. Try changing the settings again after that.

I don't recall the exact file names. I know The Division had these settings in 2 files. This fixed it in Siege for me as well, but it was two years ago and I can't remember how many files there were.

If the above doesn't work try verifying your game files after backing up and deleting everything in your My Documents \ Game Name folder.

Good luck!

For me "@Pvt. Stash" Solution not work for me

But I found by my self

Go to Graphic tab -> Oberall Quality -> click in any preset you want

For first time i click on low preset and reset a game , now graphic setting is not reset anymore , so I try click on custom and edit another setting I want and I work fine :)
