Why does my in game sensitivity on pc always reset?

I have to adjust the mouse sensitivity every time I log in… it‘s kind off annoying. Does anyone else have this bug?

    Do you have your configs set to read only? A lot of people mess with their configs to disable stuff like vsync on PC, GameUserSettings.ini also controls in game graphics and control settings, so if it is set to read only, it wont save changes.

    Make it writeable, then set your settings in game and put it back to read only or edit those settings manually in the file and put it back to read only.

    If you manually edited the GameUserSettings.ini file to make any of the setting changes that for some reason aren't available in the game's settings menu, the file may be set to Read-Only. Which you typically want to have set that way so the game doesn't try to revert the settings you made. However, this will also prevent some settings that you want to be set from saving.

    Open the game and let it sit on a menu screen. Tab out and go to the GameUserSettings.ini, right click on it, and choose Properties. There's a check box that says "Read-Only". Un-check this and click OK. Tab back into the game, set whatever settings you want, then exit the game. Go back to the GameUserSettings.ini, right-click/Properties, re-check "Read-Only", OK.

    Load the game back up and make sure all of the settings are where you want them. Then double check the GameUserSettings.ini file to make sure the settings you put in there are correct as well. This should keep the manual settings you put into it previously plus the settings you changed in-game.
