Certain settings not saving...is this a thing?

[MOD71 175]

Apologies if this is a well known issue and I've somehow missed it, but I'm finding some graphics settings are not saving and are having to be reset on each sim start. Namely, vsync, depth of field, bloom and lens flare are not saving. Once reset to what I want, I hit apply and save and they remain like that for the duration, however when I relaunch the sim, they have reverted to the opposite setting.

Not a big deal, but it is annoying and I just wanted to know if others have this problem also.

Thanks.

This may not be of help in your case, but, did you by chance make the user.cfg file "read only"?  I did so for trying to address the grainy looking cloud issue and then found out that this was the cause of my graphic settings not being saved.

You hit the nail on the head there Kroswynd. That's exactly what I'd done and had completely forgot about. Thanks for your help.

Can you guys tell me the location of that file?

This the video I reviewed for the cloud fix, but it will walk you through where the file is located.

I wish MSFS saved your settings in the map filter.  It's quite annoying to have to re-enable these every time.
