  This is usually caused by having multiple prefs.prop files. The support tool could not determine the install location of the game, so I don't have the detailed information i would need to tell you exactly where to look.

  Please navigate to the install folder, and check all sub folders for files named prefs.prop. If you find any, rename them to prefs.prop.bak to deactivate them.

  I only found one file named prefs.prop within the structure: the walking dead\Pack\WalkingDead104 and renamed it accordingly. Here is my new file [removed].

  Looks promising.
  Please rename the prefs.prop in
  C:\Users\Username\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead
  to prefs.prop.orig

  Then move the prefs.prop.bak from
  \Games\Steam\steamapps\common\The Walking Dead\Pack\WalkingDead104
  to
  C:\Users\Username\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead
  and rename it to prefs.prop

  Then check if the game has your Episode 4 choices.

  Thanks for the quick reply and help, I'll try to do so and will keep you updated if it works. One thing though, please delete my name from the file path, as I do not want it published on the internet without explicit consent.

  EDIT: it has worked, thanks a bunch.

  Glad it works now.

  Oh sorry, I didn't notice the name. I have removed it and also removed the links to the support files from your posts.
