Windowed Mode?
I do not know what I'm doing wrong but i cannot play this game in windowed mode.
I changed users.cfg r_fullscreen to off and made it read-only, still no reaction. What am i doing wrong?

Same here. Sad :(

I've got the answer to this problem. Kinda simple, if you think about it.
The users.cfg in the folder is the wrong one, go to users -> your name -> AppData -> Local -> 4A Games -> Metro LL -> lots of numbers -> user.cfg (!) This is the one you need to change to read-only and where you have to make "r_fullscreen" off.
Hope this helped!

But you actually can see every folder also the hidden ones, can you?

You only changed r_fullscreen to off, didn't you? o_o

I FIGURED OUT HOW TO GO INTO WINDOWS MODE IF YOU CANT LOCATE THE CONFIG FILE IN APPDATA/USER
Press the start(Windows) button in the corner of the desktop
In the search bar type in "%LOCALAPPDATA%" (No quotation marks). No search results will show up until you type the whole thing, so type every letter and percent sign.
press enter
Go to "4A Games" press "Metro LL"
open "User"
Change "r_fullscreen on" to "r_fullscreen off"
BAM!
You did it.
