I am unable to save my configurations globally. Everytime I open any livery besides the house color I have to open the CDU and set the ISFD and HGS. I start CLD and DRK as my default so I have to open the CDU each time as well. ANy suggestions on how to save these settings globally?Thanks

Hi Phill,As far as I know you can't set them globally. In the real world every airline has another equipment than the next. Often some of the planes in the airline's fleet are a little bit different too. PMDG has designed the equipment system so, that this fact comes also true for the NGX. Each livery has its own data saved in the PMDG folder in your FSX directory and so each livery has it's one equipment. You may try to duplicate the livery config of the house livery in your PMDG folder in the FSX directory and rename the copies. Maybe if you give the copies the same name as the existing configs (which should be named like the livery) you can set them for all your installed liveries. Of course only after you have backed up all the files.Best regards,Jonathan

Those should be saved once you set them. If not, probably your windows is blocking access to writing to the files for the sim.Solutions:-Turn off the User Account Control completely-Run FSX "as Administrator"

this has always been disabled, and I have my .exe all defaulted to "Run as Adminstrator" I will have to remember to set these each time I change liveries. More crap to do less time for actual flying.

The standby instruments are aircraft specific, but the startup panel state should be global.

Rule of thumb:If it's under PMDG Settings, it's global.If it's under Aircraft, it's aircraft specific.
