Windows 10: Every time I restart my computer the display scaling always turns back to 640x480. This...

I believe this started after trying to stop McAfee from putting a file I needed to start a game into quarantine. That didn't work and I accidently took other files out of quarantine as well but McAfee says I have no viruses so I don't know why this started nor do I know what the other files were or how to find them even though I doubt they were the cause. I can work around the problem by manually fixing everything but that will get annoying very soon. How do I fix this?
