    Default Settings are deleted on restart

    Hello,

    I have the following problem : As soon as I restart EB2, it deletes all my graphics, audio and gamesettings.

    [video]
    widescreen=0
    [game]
    allusers=1


    This is the only text written in my medieval2.preferences.cfg. As far as I know there should be more.
    Could someone help please ?

    You need to set it to read only once you've edited it.

    Great! You may need to change the resolution to match your own system - I've got a non-standard sized monitor.
