Good morning from sunny Portugal, long time lurker and very infrequent poster here.Had a major hard drive crash over the weekend, thankfully FS9 on separate drive.After recovery, I remembered that there should be a FS9 file on the c drive, something like \Flight Simulator Files.....My question is, will this file be automatically re-created when FS9 is started or would it require copying from one of the FS9 Cds, (anyone know perchance which one??)many thanx in advance for any replies/help.Best regardsTim

The FS9.cfg file should be created automatically when you run FS9. Peter
