Thank you very much N60JBravo, and all the rest of the responders, I finally figured that out, open the FSX config file with Notebook and made the changes. I am pleasantly surprised how fast one can get responses on Avsim to help software illiterates like my self.

Hello:

 

One can find the "active" FSX.Cfg file in Windows 7 at:

 

C:\Users\[user profile name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

 

 

After editing FSX.Cfg file in Windows NotePad:

 

1.) NotePad Menu > File > Save As (Save As dialog opens)

 

2.) In 'Save As' dialog:

 

* 'File Name' = FSX.Cfg

 

* 'Save As Type' = *.* (All Files) <-- allows ".Cfg" instead of default ".Txt" file extension

 

 

CAVEAT: FSX will not read and implement changes made if file is saved as FSX.TXT; edited copy of FSX.Cfg must be saved as "Cfg" as file extension type ! :excl:

 

 

3.) Browse as needed to target folder of origin before clicking "Save" button:

 

C:\Users\[user profile name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

 

 

Hope this greater detail helps with the learning process; Happy Flying ! :smile:
