Re-installing FSX (again) trying to follow PMDG Advice

Featured Replies

Hi, all

I had installed FSX into the C:/FSX folder like PMDG suggest when I bought the 737, now here is my problem. I bought the feelthere

E-Jets V2 for myself for Christmas and it messed up my FSX. I was unable to load the MD-11 without a "fatal error" occurring and a CTD.

 

My reaction was to uninstall FSX again and try a fresh install W/O the feeltere E jets. Uninstalled everything as per the guide on the website but I can now not locate the app data folder supposedly located here C:\Users\(Your Windows Account Name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX or the shared cache folder located here 

C:\Users\(Your Windows Account Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\FSX.

 

Do these two folders now reside somewhere else since my FSX was installed in C:/FSX and not program files.

 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, thank you

 

Colin.

Nope, the other two paths will not change.

 

What's your OS? W7? The path you posted should be correct for a W7 OS, for example.

 

Pls. make sure you're trying to locate the folder, starting from c:\ in Windows Explorer.

 

EDIT: Have you checked this KB article already?

Yes I looked at the DLL but couldn't figure it out and instead opted for the fresh install, I have the hidden folders checked also.

I checked to see the folders before I uninstalled and when I then did they were no longer there!

Colin

what happens if  you go to start menu in the search box  type in fsx.cfg  it should give you the location  this way as well

No such luck I still can't find these folders to delete and I don't want to install it if it will get messed up

Colin

Oh so you deleted  fsx and now trying to find these folders is which your trying to do, maybe they got deleted when you deleted fsx since your search  for the fsx.cfg came up empty suggest this theory.  Maybe you deleted  these folders already and  forgot that you had :) other  than this don't  know why you not able to find  the other folders to delete, other  than  they are hidden folders in which you stated you have check the show hidden folders so  hopefully some else  can can in here and help

Thanks Pete, I came to the conclusion too that they get deleated once FSX is uninstalled. I reinstalled everything, took hours! But all is fine again.

Thanks for the help.

Give you a hint  make a back up copy of your hard drive to an external drive will save you lots of hassles next time :)
