[Issue]: Config file doesn't save in the proper json format.

Issue Description

I'm trying to work out if this is an issue with my configuration because I've installed the app through StabilityMatrix or what else is going on. But here's the long and the short of what's happening. When I save a setting in SDNext, watching the config file, all the special characters end up being escaped. So instead of being proper json format, it ends up looking something like this: config.txt

This also occurs anytime I hit 'Apply Settings' whether I've made changes or not, and again when I hit something like 'Apply and Restart Server'

Then when I relaunch the server later, it gets wiped entirely and replaced with a properly sanitized default json file and all my custom settings are gone again. So any extra UI toggles I add are gone again, and I can't resume with my last used checkpoint either. Effectively the only way I can launch the server with my custom settings is by manually editing the config file before launch to ensure it's formatted correctly.
