What resolution are you using right now?
What issue are you having that makes you think you need to edit a file?

The launchpad loads up in windowed mode, not full screen mode, at which point the combat settings, including resolution can be changed.

This is from the system.cfg in the main MWO folder. If yours does not match this then change it back to it.

-- *************************************************************************************************
-- Default system.cfg configuration for development
--
-- Your personal settings can be stored in 'systemcfgoverride.cfg' so that they don't create
-- any conflicts for version control
-- *************************************************************************************************

-- Disable fullscreen mode
r_Fullscreen=0

-- Set 16 by 9
r_Width = 1280
r_Height = 720

I am having this issue as well. I had no trouble changing resolutions until I launched a game in windowed mode. Since then my game has been stuck at what appears to be 1024 x 768 (It's definitely less than my normal resolution of 1280 x 720. I've tried messing around in the options and putting the above in the config file without success.
