Batman Arkham Origins :- Video settings reset everytime (THREE different solutions).

(BmEngine.ini download link below)

Like me, many of the gamers have experienced this problem that requires you to set your preference everytime you launch the game as it will revert back to default when you launch the game next time. Turning Physx seems to be more annoying as it requires you to restart the game, which will inturn reset settings again. Hence you will be unable to reset the settings.

Let's see the solution :-

The game should be located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Batman Arkham Origins\" by default,

First solution:-

1. Goto the game folder and open SinglePlayer->BMGame->Config (C:\Program Files (x86)\Batman Arkham Origins\SinglePlayer\BMGame\Config)

2. Delete or move the file "BmEngine.ini" elsewhere and begin the game.

3.  By removing it, the settings should revert to default now and try setting it to your preference now

If you cannot locate the file "BmEngine.ini", worry not you can download it by clicking here and follow solution 2 below:-

1. Edit BmEngine.dll and change resolution and anything you want to be changed and save it the config folder.
2. Now run the game and see if anything changed, it didnt for me, but when I changed the settings again ingame and restarted the game after saving it, the settings did not reset :D

Solution 3:
as suggested in the comments by
"When you're gonna play by clicking batman icon, just don't double click it, but choose "run as administrator" then play the game as usual. Set your graphic setting and make screen to full screen. Then, quit the game, and double click batman icon. VOILA!! now the screen automatically full screen and your graphic setting appears as you set before."

SOLUTION :- Saints Row IV: Display settings reverts back

Go to the folder where you installed Saints Row IV , and find display.ini . Open it with notepad and see if you can find "ResolutionWidth" & "ResolutionHeight" and set them to your wanting. If you cannot find them, then worry not.

Method #1 :- 

 Add the lines your self. For example, if you want to set it to 1920x1080,
ResolutionWidth = 1920
ResolutionHeight = 1080

Method #2 :-  (Weird but works!)

1. Open the game
2. Go into Options
3. Display settings 
4. Change resolution\
5. Change preset to anything else and hit APPLY CHANGES
5. Now exit the game and see if the display.ini file has ResolutionWidth & ResolutionHeight
6. Right click on display.ini file -> Properties - > check the checkbox that says Read-Only and hit apply.
7. Run the game and it should be the resolution you set it to.
