BFV game keeps saying "Go Onine" and game settings when online, don't save.

[Scoin442]

I have had problems with BF4 game settings not saving, and occasional "Go Online" issues, but now I am trying to play BFV which I had pre-ordered and played, and it says "Go Online" and when it does work, my game settings don't save. I have to re-do that intro bs, and then go through all settings and re-set them every time... but now I can't even get on period. It always says I am offline, "Go Online". This is so frustrating that I am almost ready to demand my $ back on my game, and my wives game. I hope I can get some help here. Thank you.

i think i found a fix ...... for me i would every time i started BFV i would have to go through the intro (but would never save my progress coz i was "off line") ....just to get to the main game page but it would say im not "online" so i try to click "go online" button.... but it tells me to cant connect and to go online to ea for help...lol anyhoo after lots of messing with port forwarding... thinking it was something to do with bfv connecting to the EA severs.... i never uninstalled my game coz like ...f that ...games like 60gigs...

so this is what i found to work for me.

Hi @Scoin442

I moved your post to the BFV forum.

I'm sure the wonderful helpers here can provide you with help.

Go to Settings / Windows Defender Security Center / Ransomware Protection and add the BF5 executable as an exception under "Folder Protection"

It didn't work. Thanks for the attempt to help.

Hey @Scoin442,

Go to Documents ---> Battlefield V ---> Settings ---> and rename the PROFSAVE_tmp file to just "PROFSAVE".

Let us know if this works for you, and saves your Settings.

Thanks

I have PROFSAVE,  PROFSAVE_backup, PROFSAVE_backup_profile, PROFSAVE_backup_profile_synced, PROFSAVE_profile, and PROFSAVE_profile_synced. Which one? I don't see a temp one.
