Nothing is hard to google but it was my choice to ask at the forum, is there something wrong with that?Regards
Yep if it's too easy to find without asking. There is a reason why one should search first and then ask questions.

OK then you do it your way and I'll do it my way, thank you very much. I prefer to exercise my right to choose! You always have the option not to respond.

Yes - that's true - but not after wasting my time by reading your "too lazy" post. Word Not Allowed is perfectly correct.

That's your opinion of which you're entitled, and if you so choose you can go on with this until the cows come home. I'll have nothing more to say on this topic but to do things the way i deem fit.So you and your precious Word Not Allowed can continue if this excites you or makes you feel good about yourselves.

Thanks Bigmack, i got it and now things work fine, I did everything there at first, except "Roaming" because REX wasn't seeing the file automatically so i had to do it manually.Regards

The FSX.cfg file can be found in FSX.I suggest that making a shortcut on the desktop and setting the notepad to open .cfg files by default.A number of the tweaks that are posted on the internet involve editing the FSX.cfg file.The FSX will look for any instances of cfg still in your desktop.

...not only that, but Win7 has a great search engine built into Windows Explorer - top right of the window. Just type in fsx.cfg and it will find it within seconds.
