Drop in your Game.ini and it gets fixed on your own PC.
Takes a minute. Nothing is uploaded.
Close Dune first, and lock the file after. The game rewrites this file every
time it shuts down, so a fix made while it is open is thrown away — and an unlocked file
is wiped at the next quit. Quit fully, fix, then step 5.
Use Chrome or Edge to fix it in one click. Firefox and Safari can’t write
the file directly — here they hand you a fixed copy to put back yourself.
1. Open the folder
Press Win + E, then:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\DuneSandbox\Saved\Config\Windows
Paste it in Explorer’s
address bar (Ctrl + V, Enter).
2. Drag Game.ini onto the box
That exact file — not
GameUserSettings, not a .bak- one.
Drop Game.ini here
Read on your machine. Never sent anywhere.

4. Fix it
5. Lock the file — don’t skip this
Dune rewrites this file every time it shuts down and will wipe the fix.
Locking it stops that. Nothing in the game breaks.
In the folder from step 1, right‑click Game.ini →
Properties.
Tick Read‑only → OK.
Come back and press the button below.
While it is locked the game can’t save
graphics, language or HUD changes into this file. Untick Read‑only if you want to change
those, then tick it again.
Putting the copy back
It saved to Downloads. If it came out as Game (1).ini,
rename it to Game.ini.
Drag it into the folder from step 1 and choose Replace.
Read‑only warning? Right‑click the old file, Properties, untick
Read‑only, then replace it.
Good to know
Already locked? The write fails and the page says so. Untick
Read‑only in the file’s Properties, fix it, re‑tick it.
Settings vanished again? The file wasn’t locked, or the game was
open when you fixed it. Do it again with the game closed and finish with step 5.
Only six sections change. Your password and account lines are copied
through untouched and are never shown here.
