If you change around some of the default key assignments like I did , backup that file first if You ever decide to let FSX rebuild your cfg file. Then just overwrite the new one.

^ Good advice. Some people like to delete their FSX.cfg file to see if it fixes some problems. When FSX restarts it will create a new fsx.cfg file but it will also create a new standard.xml file and overwrite any custom key assignments you may have made. So make a copy of standard.xml.

www.antsairplanes.com

This file is pointed to in the fsx.cfg as :-[CONTROLS]Controls_Current=StandardControls_Default=StandardThe header in the Standard.xml file is:-<SimBase.Document Type="Controls" version="1,0" id="Standard"> <Descr>Controls Mapping File</Descr> <Filename>Standard.XML</Filename>You can rename the entries in the fsx.cfg to point to any named xml file you want, with all the control/button/keypress you have or want to configure and save. All that you have to change is the word "Standard" in each position within the two files (bolded) - and then rename the standard .xml to the new name, and it will be recognized by FSX. A far better method of saving the key assignments is by using the profile facility of FSUIPC, whereby you can save all key-presses, switches, axis controls and their respective calibrations. It's a magnificent addon.

I would recommend placing a copy of your mod controls file in the main fsx folder was well. AFAIK that is where fsx.cfg will look for the "default".scott s..
