Video settings keep changing back to default. Game makes me play intro gameplay.

[glebvj]

Hey everyone. I have a problem with Bf 5. 

So the problem is that I can not change my video settings. 

I launch the game, watch the "attack on narvic scene" for 100th time, change the settings, exit the game, run it again and it doesnt change.

My resolution stays the same and the quality seems same as well.

I found out that my PROFSAVE_profile file changes everytime I run the game, automatically. 

After I close the game, setting in this file are what I need them to be, but as soon as I start it, it just changes.

Tried to reinstall the game, tried to reinstall Origin itself, tried installing to a different location, tried to repair the game, nothing worked. 

Does anyone have the same issue? And the most annoying part of it all is that I finished the intro gameplay, but every time I run it, it drops back to the beginning like I never did. 

What is going on?
