Thanks. Your logs look very normal, so I have no idea what is wrong. Can you please check if C:\Users\Family\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\config\config.ini exists? If it does, try to delete it and try to run Factorio again, change settings and see if the file got created.

1. I found config.ini (it did exist)
2. I deleted it
3. I ran factorio, changed langauge to german, chat to Y
4. Closed factorio
5. Opened factorio, This time, to be confronted with the menu in German. (Which took me a little while to navigate :p)

old config looked like this:

Can you check if you still have this issue in 0.12.24?
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

The problem's gone...

Deleting config.ini worked. I assume it's something to do with the fact that mine was just a load of spaces.
