Restart the game and play a few matches
Sometimes, the game may need a restart for the settings to register properly. After restarting, try playing a few games after changing the settings, as the saving process might be delayed.
Verify Game Files
Corrupted local files can cause strange bugs. Verifying the integrity of game files through Steam is always a good step to fix any in-game issues. Just follow these steps: Open Steam, go to Library, right-click REMATCH -> Properties -> Installed Files -> Verify integrity of game files. After the scan is complete, launch the game.
Run the game as administrator
Navigate to your Rematch installation folder. For this, go to Steam Library > right-click Rematch > Manage > Browse local files. Find the main executable file for Rematch (e.g., Rematch.exe). Right-click on Rematch.exe and select “Run as administrator“. Now, check whether the settings are getting saved.
Still no fix?
Now, after trying these basic checks, if you are still facing the issue, a Steam user named Galed shared a solution that helped him fix the problem where settings wouldn’t apply or save in Rematch. We’ve explained the method below; just follow the steps.
- Close Rematch and Steam.
- Go to the following directory: “C:\Users\[YourUserNameFolder]\AppData\Local\”. If you are not able to find the AppData folder, go to View>Show>Hidden.
- Inside the Local folder, look for a folder named “Runtime”. This folder contains old beta data that conflicts with the current game version.
- Delete the entire “Runtime” folder. Launch Rematch, adjust your settings, and then exit the game normally.
- Relaunch the game to see if your settings are now saving correctly.
