If you want to be sure it never changes, go into documents and call of duty/players/options3/options4, folder and properties set to read only AFTER you set the game settings to what u want in game and close it once.. and sometimes one drive will load old files so may wanna try n disable that as well
@@ibtta7 lol i found the folder he was talking about but it didn’t fix. i’m still doing my settings everyday. it saves my graphic settings at least. i just have to re do audio, brightness, fov and chute deployment every time i boot up. i’m learning to live with it. it’s unfixable
I've liked and subbed thank you for making this vid ive had this problem since launch I can finally play straight away now without having to spend time doing my setting 😄
Aye this worked good looks bro I watched so many vids and this one worked but I had to restart my pc for it to work after doing the steps and put my settings back in and it saved
OMG THIS FINALLY WORKED!!! I'M TYPING IN CAPS BECAUSE IM LITERALLY YELLING WITH JOY!!! I tried the read only suggestion prior AND I did this but I only allowed cod.exe and the launcher.. for me I had to add all the others that you suggested in the video for it to finally work!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn... in this case I actually think it's windows that's at fault here. I've noticed ransomware blocking a lot of games on my PC, preventing them from doing simple things like saving.
@@eekaygames i copied the ones u did aswell and changed them restarted and all just went back the same.. im gonna just leave it till after the update coming on the 15th and then try resolve issues then.. i tried to change things in the game files and it still reverts lol.. cant win
Hey there, ive got some problems. I got the bug. I got it from steam and i cant find the "call of duty" folder. Only the "Call of Duty HQ" folder but its not the one i need, its a different one (100%) So..... i cant turn off players and anything else, its just not there so how can i fix it then?
i just added cod exe will it still work ? just tried it with just cod exe works thanks sm i just got mw2 kept having to do my settings over and over saved me smm time thanks
I'd recommend removing kaspersky. windows defender is fine for most threats unless you're going to some shady sites or downloading shady software. or setting up an exception/exclusion in kaspersky
the exe is in the folder where you installed the game. in bnet. click on the gear icon and click on "show in explorer" and it should be the launcher application. if in steam. right click on game > properties > installed files > browse > "cod" application
@@eekaygames it was never on in the first place - but i managed to fix it - with the new bo6 beta there was a fix for packet burst where u would change some doc files content and make them read only (check metaphors bo6 beta video), I turned read only off and that fixed it!
damn! sorry. One thing to double-check is if your computer is up to date. this issue isn't unique to CoD but Windows Ransomware blocking a lot of programs. good luck
go to ransomware > Allow an app through controlled folder access > Recently blocked apps. if it lists a cod executable file.. add it. if not look for cod22-cod.exe in the folder where you have cod installed. ...Call of Duty\_retail_\cod22. hope this helps
This still works had this issue with the new cod today you are a life saver
Im on the xbox app on pc and I dont find the exe file of cod and if I want to open the bootstrapper file it dont work it dont allow me to open it
w bro this still work a year later thanksssss man keep it up

BRO THANK YOU SO MUTCH U JUST GOT A NEW SUB!!!!!
thanks for the sub. glad it helped! FYI this might be a thing for all games
very good video bro, ty
thank u so much man
Not working for me. What works was to delete the call of duty directory in documents then launch the game.
It’s the windows updates and one drive a windows program that is causing these problems..
good to know
thank you ,Once i disabled the Onedrive it worked !!
Thank you
If this didn’t work then open file explorer go into documents find the call of duty folder and cut it into local drive.
I hope this will work in MW3, but it doesnt work for me :( I dont know why, but thx for help man.
thanks broski
it didnt work.. but i appreciate u tryna help. they dont have a clue man

So..... i cant turn off players and anything else, its just not there so how can i fix it then?
In Documents there is just not the "call of duty" folder.
right click on call of duty > properties > installed files > scroll down to cod application.
all else fails just disable ransomware altogether
@@eekaygames Hey, i tried to turn off the ransomware but it still doesnt work for me.... still not saving the settings ive changed, any advices?
Ty
i just added cod exe will it still work ?
just tried it with just cod exe works thanks sm i just got mw2 kept having to do my settings over and over saved me smm time thanks
It says my it is lock by my IT administrator. It’s a brand new pc I set it up
make sure you're logged in as the administrator
❤❤❤
cannot add new bo6 on gamepass do not have permission and cannot add also my ransomware thing was off still not saving
sounds like you need to login as an administrator
@@eekaygames i am the admin... there is only 1 user
I have the same issue if u have a solution please answer🙏
@Kian24-gc6iy i am gonna try something later... i heard u need to verify and repair before each launch and it will save settings ...for gamepass
@@sorax2871 u Need to go to documents in bo6 and the to player rename the file to player1 and restart the Game After that it should be fixed
Not working for me because of kaspersky
I'd recommend removing kaspersky. windows defender is fine for most threats unless you're going to some shady sites or downloading shady software. or setting up an exception/exclusion in kaspersky
don’t work, my cod when i click on it in files only comes up with players
not sure what you mean.. the other option is to disable your ransomware altogether
@@eekaygames when i click on cod another file pops up that says players.
i just turned the setting off completely
i did all that, still not working is happening in mw3
bummer. it's not unique to mw3. it's a window's ransomware that blocks many apps/games
I can’t find cod exe on my documents, anyone else struggle with that? Need help
the exe is in the folder where you installed the game. in bnet. click on the gear icon and click on "show in explorer" and it should be the launcher application. if in steam. right click on game > properties > installed files > browse > "cod" application
this didn't even work, but thanks anyway
Didnt work for me unfortunately :(
hmmm have you tried disabling ransonware altogether?

@@MaGiCsWiZzKiDcAnDy YIKES that's a bit much to change settings. glad it's fixed
It didn’t work for me
Hmmm i'd recommend disabling all of ransomware then restart and see if that works GL
bro it didn't work for me so sad T_T
damn! sorry. One thing to double-check is if your computer is up to date. this issue isn't unique to CoD but Windows Ransomware blocking a lot of programs. good luck
Didnt work smh cod is so dumb
sorry bro. i think it's actually windows that's the issue. ransomware is blocking a lot on my computer. I couldn't save properly on multiple titles
yep dont work
go to ransomware > Allow an app through controlled folder access > Recently blocked apps. if it lists a cod executable file.. add it. if not look for cod22-cod.exe in the folder where you have cod installed. ...Call of Duty\_retail_\cod22. hope this helps
so bad
