Game forcing desktop resolution to 800x600

[Skeksis25]

Been playing the game just fine for the last 2 months. All of a sudden, today I try to launch and it forces my desktop to 800x600 (1920x1080) usually and doesn't launch. I have to force close the game. I've tried restarting my PC and it doesn't help. No other games are causing this issue, I can play them just fine as before at 1920x1080. But everytime I try to launch The Old Republic, my desktop's resolution becomes 800x600.

If that doesn't work, go to %LocalAppData%\SWTOR\swtor\settings\

Open the client_settings.ini

Change the lines "Height", "Width", "NativeHeight" and "NativeWidth" to match your screens resolution.

Save, close, launch the game.
