7 months ago Looks like you are using some old version of nightly because widescreen patch option has already been removed from per game settings.
If you are using old folder it may be picking up your per game setting from old version. Try downloading the latest nightly into a fresh folder to see if the problem persists. You can also try clearing per game settings option from pcsx2 or completely deleting SLUS-20014_0D168765.ini file.
Also please note that if you had widescreen enabled while making a savestate you can not disable it while loading the savestate. It only works on fresh boot.

Describe the Bug
I have the "Enable Widescreen Patches" option turned ON in the main menu, and the in-game Widescreen Patch turned OFF in the per-game config. PCSX2 still launches the game with the Widescreen Patch applied (the console log also says it's enabling the patch). This persists even after resetting. When I check the .ini file, it correctly doesn't list the Widescreen Patch as enabled. Both my global and per-game settings are set to Auto 4:3, so it's not that.
For some reason, PCSX2 is just refusing to recognize that I turned off the widescreen patch. Of course, if I disable Widescreen Hacks in the global settings, it fixes this but I don't want to do that.
How can I resolve this?
It seems I'm not the only one who's had this problem with the buggy widescreen patch feature. Here's a post from 3 years ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/PCSX2/comments/jpxoed/how_do_i_disable_a_widescreen_patch/
Reproduction Steps
Enable Widescreen Patches in the main settings Enable the widescreen patch for Armored Core 2 (might not be necessary, but I think this is where PCSX2 gets "stuck" and refuses to disable the patch after), launch the game to apply it, then exit Disable the widescreen patch, launch game
Expected Behavior
PCSX2 does not apply the widescreen patch when I disable the checkbox.
