We all accepted Call of Duty Black Ops 6 as the new sensation of COD for the long run. However, games like these often encounter unexpected errors.
One of them involves your settings getting reset randomly when you restart or relaunch your BO6. This is a worldwide issue for both XBOX Game Pass users and Steam users on PC. There are a few ways to fix this issue once and for all.
Stop Your BO6 Settings Getting Reset Repeatedly
Me and my friends have all been facing this issue, and upon research and testing, there are the solutions that have worked for both me, and them, so let us check them out.
Fix for Steam Users on PC for BO6
All the changes will happen inside the game for Steam users, so start your game and go to the “Settings” option.
- Now, Open Account and Network from the settings.
- Find an option called “Clouded Settings”
It should be under the Two-Factor Authentication Option. Since I am on my XBOX Game Pass, we usually do not get this option to toggle cloud saves. Find this and toggle it to “OFF”.
Once you do that, restart the game and your Steam as well. BO6 should now save locally and no files should be lost or corrupted due to the cloud save or synching errors.
Fix For XBOX Game Pass Users on PC
The method is somewhat long for XBOX Game Pass users, since there is no toggle option for cloud saves for these users. Here is a trick for making it work on Game Pass:
- Logout of the XBOX App and MS Store to start with.
- Type “Settings” in the Windows search bar.
- Find “Apps” and then select “Installed Apps” from there.
Find the Apps MS Store and XBOX App. Now click on the three dots and open “Advanced Options”. Find the Option called “Repair” and simply repair the apps.
Once you do this, restart your computer, and re-login to your MS Store, and the XBOX App. Start BO6 and you have restored all your settings and none of them should be lost if you do this method the right way.
The developers are yet to address these settings getting reset issues in BO6 and we are hoping to get a permanent fix for both the platform users. Until then, these will be your best bet to not get annoyed by this game bug or issue and play BO6 smoothly without much hassle!
