What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

Using [Dolphin.Core] or [Dolphin.DSP] instead of [Core] and [DSP] respectively will result in the settings having no effect. However, using for example [Graphics.Hacks] instead of [Video_Hacks] works fine.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Open the properties page of any game and go to the editor tab
2. Add the lines:

[Dolphin.Core] OverclockEnable = True #Any setting will work

3: Start the game and open the advanced settings tab
4: The setting name will be bolded but still be off if it was off before the game started

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

5.0-14197

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

5.0 does not have this feature. I tried to use [Graphics.Settings] and it did nothing.

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

5.0-4171. Since the feature was added in that version I guess it never worked correctly.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

Not a graphics issue

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Doesn't seem relevant? I'll provide them on request.

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
