FSX-SE Throttles won't move

[Boeing_Driver 76]

Just made a new installation of FSX Steam version and for some reason, the throttles can't be taken out of idle. More accurately, they can be moved, but they snap right back into the idle position.

 

At first, I thought it was an issue with my throttle quadrant but after disconnecting all my hardware, the problem still exists (including the default aircraft). So for instance, I can push the throttles forward with the mouse, but they just move right back to idle again.

 

Strangely, the problem went away yesterday but it's back again today.

 

Could this be an issue with Windows 10?

I don't think this is Windows 10, but you can run a Windows 10 Scan and Repair just in case.

You might also want to run the Legacy SimConnect installers (I believe there are 3 different versions for FSX, 4 different versions for P3D) which might also resolve this for you.

Finally, try reinstalling your controller drivers.
