DO NOT UPLOAD YOUR SETTINGS.DAT FILE, it contains your LicenseKey (encoded, but still)

I would recommend checking your folder for settings.dat (For the Steam version, default install, see "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\a valley without wind\RuntimeData") and looking at what it has set the resolution related settings to.

The data you're looking for is (in Find friendly formatting)

Edit: Heh, left my fullscreen option in. XD

I attempted to do this earlier and couldn't find a file like this. When I start up the game the message I get is Couldn't switch Moniter to Requested Resolution. Switching to resolution 1024x768 failed, trying lower one
All resolution switches have failed
Screen: could not switch resolution (1024x768 fs=0 hz=0)

I don't seem to even have a settings.dat yet.

I installed some driver updates and I am fine. Thanks so much for trying to help me.
