March 30, 20197 yr Moderator Garry, The program is not a joke. If I need to retrieve single or multiple files I use Utilities - Explore Image. The whole mirror image can be temporarily mounted as a drive letter allowing you to recover as many files as you require. When finished just return to Explore and unmount the image.

March 30, 20197 yr Author Hi Ray Of course not. Heat of the moment. I have just done exactly what you suggested in respect of my P3D installation. What 'memory' is the program referring to?
March 30, 20197 yr Moderator Garry, I’ve never seen the memory message you refer to. Did mounting the image resolve your problem? Restoring the whole P3D folder just to resolve ‘floating trees’ is a little extreme. There must be a simpler solution. Ray (Cheshire, England).

March 30, 20197 yr Author Yep. it sure did. Thanks. Re the trees - of course there is but I thought I'd restore a 'perfect' working p3d just to check things were ok. This was my first 'restore' attempt using this software.
March 30, 20197 yr Moderator The explore image option is one I have used a few times to recover individual files. Not had a P3D disaster yet fortunately. Bear in mind there are cfg files spread around the system such as in Program Data and %APPDATA% so make sure you backup the C drive too.

April 3, 20197 yr Author Hi Ray The problem was the AMD Adrenalin drivers. I'm running windows default now.

Consider Nvidia when you next change your graphics card. Ray (Cheshire, England).

April 4, 20197 yr Author Ray, Over the past 25 years odd or so I've only bought AMD based systems [initially on the advice of software engineer pal] and generally been happy, plus keeping competition alive..but when you can't use all the features of a product because of the maker you have to seriously reconsider the wisdom of your choice - and I now understand from reading some posts it seems this issue has been around since 2017(!).
April 4, 20197 yr Moderator Garry, if you follow discussion on these pages you’ll find the vast majority use Intel / Nvidia as they gives the best performance for P3D and FSX before it. It’s entirely your choice of course. Other ‘games’ may well perform better on AMD hardware. It’s entirely up to the user. Ray (Cheshire, England).
