A CS2 autoxec is a config file (CFG) is a set of commands that get “automatically executed” upon startup. It eliminates the need for manually configuring and tweaking every single setting that typically gets reset when the game is closed.
Most players use it to customize their crosshair, ViewModel settings, binds, HUD, and resolutions. However, you can pretty much add any setting/command you like, and it should still work once you launch CS2.
While creating a config file can seem intimidating, it’s actually made just using the built-in Windows notepad app.
Now, it’s time to move the autoexec file to the CS2 install location.
Despite already being in the CFG folder, it won’t automatically launch by itself. For this, you’ll need to:
There you have it, all of the commands you included in your autoexec file should automatically be applied whenever you open CS2.
One of the biggest advantages of config files is their flexibility. They allow players to instantly apply their preferred settings, even when switching between different computers or setups. Plus, you’re not limited to just your own setup. You can simply download and use config files from other players. In fact, if you wanted to, you could grab s1mple’s CFG file and use it as your own.
To do that, you’ll need to:
Note: If you don’t want to use the CFG file as an autoexec, simply leave it in the same folder, then launch CS2. Once in a game, open the console, type in “exec *name*” and press Enter to launch.
Since the config file is made using Notepad or any text editor, we can also use the same applications to customize it. All you have to do is double-click on any CFG file and rewrite, add, or delete any of the commands to your liking. It’s that simple.
Just remember to replace the Steam CS2 Launch Options command if you change the name of an autoexec!
