Short description of the issue:
When Minecraft auto-update, certain Setting in-game gets resetted. Including: Fullscreen mode (Switch to fullscreen instead of Window Mode), Chunk Render Distance, Screen Animation, etc. I suspect this has to do with how Minecraft writes/reads setting config fileSteps to reproduce the issue:
Change the in-game Minecraft’s setting, when Minecraft auto-update, these settings get resettedExpected result:
Minecraft should “remember“ user’s setting and not get resettedActual result:
Settings got messed up
NOTE: I noticed this happened around when Minecraft Bedrock Switches to GDK.
