Everytime I login, i must :
Conduct / TOS agreement, adjust screen, choose country, Server etc etc.

Why wont the game remember these settings ?

As I recall, these are stored on your local computer or console HD. Likely, an issue writing to that.

Yeah, your usersetting.txt file is probably not writable.

Hey! I remember having the same exact issue and I even opened a thread about it. I eventually found the solution, you can read through it: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/584328/settings-changes-not-applying#latest
Hope it helps!

Greetings,

This thread has been moved to the General Help section, as it is better suited there.

Thank you for your understanding.

Basically what others have said, when you change a setting or go through the whole "select a region/read through the EULA" those changes are noted in game and applied immediately to your playthorugh, but the changes are not saved to the "usersetting" file until you exit the game.

Any other program (like an anti virus) or file setting (like the file or the folder that the file is in for some reason being set to "read-only") can prevent the settings from being written to that file on exit.

thanks guys, it worked by going into the file system, and make it writable/unwritable. something like that.
