How do we reset graphical setting *outside* of the game?

So far these are the only folders this game has:


\Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity II
\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Obsidian Entertainment
\Users\<username>\Saved Games\Pillars of Eternity II

that I can find. None have an ini for graphical settings... well no .ini at all for anything.

Anyone know where the .ini file is to change my resolution back to normal? Game keeps trying to use 3840x1080 instead of 1920x1080 and I get a black screen and have to hard reboot.

There is no .ini ... all the Settings are in the Registry.

Start "regedit" and go to
"\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Obsidian Entertainment\Pillars of Eternity II"

There is a "Screenmanager Resolution Height" and Width DWORD Entry ... try changing this, it may work ;)

I just found the soltuion not 30 seconds ago.

If I hit ALT + ENTER *for the amount of times as I have monitors* (3) then it fixes the problem.
