How to Uninstall 10.35 and then reinstall

Recommended Posts

Something went wrong when I installed 10.35. Most of the default aircraft won't load and I get the error message that there is an "airfoil file" missing. What is the best way to un-install 10.35 and start over?

 

Thank you for your help.

Yes, there really isn't anything to "uninstall" other than just removing the folder.  That's rather drastic and unnecessary as @yidahoo points out.

I think you can get away with just your removing the aircrafts folder and running the updater which will reinstall them. However, if worse comes to the worst, just take a copy of your Custom Scenery, Resources/Plugins and Aircraft (Just your addons) folders, reinstall X-Plane, update, and put the folders back in, they'll all hopefully work as before (Except addons requiring activation).

 

I've done this many times when moving between machines and/or losing stuff, and it's always worked. Far quicker than spending a full day reinstalling everything like I once had to do on FSX.
