Curly quotes are breaking your ARK config
Applies to ARK: Survival Ascended.
What it looks like in your config
SessionName=“My ARK Server”
What causes it
Copying settings from a web guide through a word processor turns straight quotes into smart quotes. ARK's INI parser cannot read the line and skips the setting without saying so.
How to fix it
Some lines (this) contain smart quotes or other non-ASCII characters, usually from copying a guide through a word processor. ARK's INI parser cannot read them and skips the setting. Retype the values as plain text in a code editor.
