Fixing Scenery.cfg file errors

Has this ever happened to you?

 

You have your OS on a small SSD (C:) and FSX data installed on D: but mistakenly install another big scenery add-on to C: instead of D: ?

 

So you remove and re-install the add-on to where it's supposed to be but every time you load FSX you still get a big error message -  'can't locate C: /.../area 117' despite your best efforts.

 

1. Go to (C:)/ProgramData/Microsoft/FSX
2. Open Scenery.CFG
 
[Area.117]
Title=MegaSceneryEarth Hawaii
Local=C:\MegaSceneryEarth\Hawaii
 
CHANGE TO
 
[Area.117]
Title=MegaSceneryEarth Hawaii
Local=D:\MegaSceneryEarth\Hawaii
 
THEN SAVE
 
It's not a hard fix, it's just hard to know exactly where to fix.
