In this file, you can then set the following options. The values are stored in plaintext and require no quotations.
35+
```
36+
global.retroachievements.username=
37+
global.retroachievements.password=
38+
global.retroachievements.webapikey=
39+
```
40+
41+
For example, setting a password would be:
42+
`global.retroachievements.password=This1sN0tSecure`
43+
44+
Once you have made these changes, you can save and exit the Text editor.
45+
