Ok maybe I am incompetant ha. I cannot find it anywhere I do not have said folder.

First, you need to make sure you can view hidden folders and files. To do this:

 

1. Click Start.

2. Type "search" in start search box.

3. click "Change search options for files and folders".

4. Now, Click on View tab .

5. Under View,

a)Select the radio button labeled Show hidden files, folders, and drives

b)Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide extensions for known file types.

c)Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.

6. Click on Apply and Ok.

 

Now you should be able to find the file using the Windows search tool (i.e., "Start," "Search.")

Can you take a screenshot of your AppData and post it here?

Vc10man - this is about FSX-SE, not Lockheed's Prepar3D.

Ok thank you that helped. All that it is finding is lwcfg.spb, but no xml files.

[Donstim 109]

Hmmm. I think what I would try is renaming that file by adding.bak to the end, then seeing if the program will run ok. (If that doesn't help or causes other problems, then change the name back. If it does do the trick, you can either leave the renamed file or delete it.)

Oops, I need glasses. I was reading a Prepar3D post and inadvertently just let my thought pattern goes astray. But it makes not much difference anyway, because the FSX-SE.cfg is still in the same AppData folder

Ok I will look into those options. Unfortunately one of the possible options to fix requires a utility that only uses  command line and I am not super great at that. I truly cannot thank you guys enough for all the help. I will keep trying some other options and maybe sometime this year Dovetail will reply. They really should take a lesson from all the people here on technical support.

Ha no worries I assumed that but you know what they say about assuming...
