Assetto Corsa Competizione

Damaged ACC user configuration

A clean Assetto Corsa Competizione profile is a last diagnostic step when current evidence points to configuration corruption and narrower repairs have not helped.

Checks and expected results

Before you repair it

  • Identify the repeated startup failure and record which targeted cache, display, or controller repairs have already been tried.
  • Locate both the ACC Documents configuration and LocalAppData Saved\Config folders in the actual user profile, including any redirected Documents location.
  • Close Assetto Corsa Competizione and preserve the complete affected data before approving a move of the active copy.

How to confirm the result

Relaunch Assetto Corsa Competizione to create clean user data, review graphics and controls, and retry the original failure. If it works, bring back personal data selectively; if it fails, restore the preserved profile with the simulator closed.

Repair limits and when to stop

A new profile can reset preferences and bindings or temporarily hide saved data. It is not a repair for driver, hardware, or game-package faults. Do not delete the backup or copy all of the old configuration back before retesting.

How PitMedic recognizes it

Repeated startup failure remains after targeted repairs and ACC reports corrupt or unparseable configuration state.

Signals PitMedic may recognize

  • configuration corruption
  • parse error
  • Saved\Config

Built-in response

Preserve the ACC Documents configuration and LocalAppData Saved\Config folders, then move the active copies aside so ACC can generate clean settings.
