Counter-Strike 2 console commands autoexec.cfg
If you’re always using different computer setups, you may want to create an autoexec config file. This file contains a list of console commands that, upon startup, the game will automatically run this file and adjust your settings accordingly.
High-level players, typically those who are used to playing at LAN events will create their own autoexec files ahead of time to ensure their setup remains consistent. You can preset your graphics settings, mouse sensitivity, and adjust your HUD to instantly switch things to the way you want them.
