Hi

There was a recent post about launcher error, I didn't read it carefully but I do believe this is a different problem.

The thing is that when I launch a game this error message reads:
"Error was encountered when reading the configuration file and settings could not be saved. - Do you want to run the game with previous settings anyway? Yes/No"

It doesn't matter witch option I choose; the game runs perfectly... the error message is not in itself the problem, but most probably connected to the problem:

The problem is that the launcher always and only launches DH Full even though I choose other mods. This is also the case when I choose the in-game DH Light; - DH Full runs instead.

When I use the launcher, it says it "Error was found when writing tot he configuration file and the settings could not be saved. Do you want to run the game in previous settings anyway?". What should I do?
You probably installed Darkest Hour in C:\Program Files or under another protected folder in Windows Vista/7 with UAC enabled. There are multiple solutions:
1) reinstall in another folder (default is C:\Games\Darkest Hour)
2) run the game as Administrator
3) give full/write access to Darkest Hour\settings.cfg for your user
