In Battlefield 6, many fans are currently feverishly searching for the user.cfg, also known as User Configuration. With it, you can customize the shooter and benefit from advantages. Everything you need to know can be found here.
Where can I find the user.cfg? You can’t find this file, as you have to create it yourself. Look for the right place to place it. The path should look as follows, depending on where your games are stored for Steam:
- C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonBattlefield 6 (for Steam)
- C:Program Files (x86)Electronic ArtsEA DesktopBattlefield 6 (for EA Launcher)
There, you will then need to right-click in the folder to create a text file named “user.cfg”. Now you can use the file and later, when you have inserted everything you need, activate the “Read-Only” option so that no settings are overwritten when starting Battlefield 6.
What is the user.cfg? The user.cfg is a file where you can set parameters that will be taken into account when starting Battlefield 6. Many fans use the file to specify how many cores of their CPU should be used while gaming. With the right settings, you can gain performance and reduce the load on your CPU.
The best user.cfg to gain more performance
Open your user.cfg and copy the following commands into it:
———————————————————
Thread.ProcessorCount 8
Thread.MaxProcessorCount 8
Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 16
———————————————————
WorldRender.LightTileCsPathEnable 0
WorldRender.MotionBlurEnable 0
WorldRender.MotionBlurQuality 0
WorldRender.MotionBlurMaxSampleCount 0
WorldRender.MotionBlurRadialBlurMax 0
WorldRender.TransparencyShadowmapsEnable 0
WorldRender.SpotLightShadowmapEnable 0
PostProcess.DynamicAOEnable 0
PostProcess.DynamicAOMethod 0
PostProcess.DofMethod 0
PostProcess.BlurMethod 0
———————————————————
What can the commands do? The first block refers to your CPU in terms of the threads used. It is best to specify the number that your CPU provides.
In the second block, you should primarily focus on the first command. This turns the light on and off in the menu and shooting range (0 = off, 1 = on). With it, you can gain much performance. The remaining commands focus on unnecessary functions like motion blur during your round. You can also keep these turned off.
With the (~) key, you can open the console commands and then enter your command and activate or deactivate it with 0 or 1.
In addition to user.cfg, there is also the file “PROFSAVE_profile”. With this, you can also enforce many settings in Battlefield 6, which can drastically improve your gaming experience.
Bonus: PROFSAVE_profile for more settings
First, open the following path, as you need to open the “PROFSAVE_profile” file with Notepad in this location:
- Documents/Battlefield 6/settings/steam
- (depending on which platform you use, you need to select either epic games or ea)
Now copy the following commands and keep them saved for a moment:

These settings were published by optimization expert FR33THY on YouTube. They aim to reduce or completely turn off the depth of field of your weapons as well as other annoying visual adjustments. This also improves your performance and provides a better gaming experience.
These were all the adjustments and information we recommend for the user.cfg and PROFSAVE_profile. Please note that you can only make these changes if you are on the PC. Xbox and PlayStation do not benefit from these tricks and must cope with what DICE has set up. Did you know that some players in Battlefield 6 received the Battle Pass for free?
