Where Are Apex Legends Settings Stored?
Apex Legends settings.cfg and videoconfig files under Saved Games Respawn Apex local on Windows.
Last updated
Apex Legends stores binds, video options and game state as loose files under Saved Games, then Respawn, then Apex, then local. The key files are settings.cfg and videoconfig.txt.
Both Steam and EA App builds share this path. If the game ignores your edits, the folder or files are probably read only.
Where Apex Legends stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local\settings.cfg
videoconfig.txt sits beside it. Paste the folder path into Run (Win+R). Untick read only on the folder if in game changes never stick.
Frequently asked questions
How do I share Apex settings between Windows accounts?
Copy settings.cfg into the same local folder on the other account. Binds and most options travel; video may need a retune for the GPU.
The game regenerates videoconfig every launch. Why?
It detected a GPU or driver change, or the file is read only and fails to save. Let it write once, then compare values.
