This is usually because of a permission problem on the system. Here’s an old post explaining:

Sometimes graphics card apps like GeForce Experience may also override your graphics performance settings from what you try to set in-game. Be sure to check for such applications.

Did you read the post I linked you, which tells you how to fix that?

Are you using something that syncs your files, like OneDrive or Dropbox? These can overwrite the files with old settings.

Nope I have been using those

The GPU driver control panel might be overriding your settings. For instance, GeForce Experience will do this.

Hey there,

Make sure the Overwatch settings file is not set to read-only. The file is located here:

C:\Users\(your name)\Documents\Overwatch\Settings\Settings_v0.ini

Or, delete the Settings_v0 file and then launch Overwatch again so it will be recreated.
