Hello, although I changed the settings in the graphics section of the Rainbow Six Siege game, I cannot apply it and the game runs at the lowest settings. What should I do? Recently, I had 'update rate error' and when I couldn't solve the problem, I had to reinstall the game.Today, when I reboot and turn it on, I noticed that it uses the integrated one, not my external video card, and I fixed this problem, but I still cannot change the graphics settings. Can you help me?

Hey HizirReis1041, thanks for getting in touch, welcome to forums and I am sorry to hear about the issue you ran into.

There are couple things you may try to resolve this:

1. First, check to see if your GameSettings.ini file is not set to 'Read-Only' (by default located in C:\Users\CurrentUser\Documents\My Games\Rainbow Six - Siege\)

2. If that doesn't help, you may try getting a new save file to see if it helps to resolve this

- Make sure Ubisoft Connect is exited out, which can include exiting from your system tray if you opted to have Ubisoft Connect run in the background when pressing the window X
-Go to the save game folder below and delete it after making a backup:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\\635 (Uplay)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\\1843 (Steam)

-Open Uplay as administrator, then disable the overlay and cloud save
- Launch Siege, modify an operator's loadout, and play a situation, to ensure a good save.
- exit the game, re-enable cloud saves and the overlay and restart Uplay
- When the game starts back up, you will get a message about which save to use. Make sure to select the local save, not the cloud game save. Uplay will then update with the local save.

If that doesn't help however, you can simply revert this by replacing your backed up save file.

Keep us updated and should you have any questions in the meantime, let us know!
