If you are referring to the GPS options, there should be a folder called FLYSIMWARE LEAR35A INFO in your main sim folder, e.g., under P3Dv4, etc.

Just downloaded the update from SIMMARKET - seems to have run fine - aircraft has been updated - the folder is not in the root of P3D as I noted the new location...

I ran the installer twice - as admin - no joy...

Hi Scott,

Yes, you are correct. The FLYSIMWARE INFO folder has been moved -- again. With the new installer you will now find it (I hope!) in your C drive root directory at C:\FLYSIMWARE.

BTW, there should be a small text file called Flysimware Get Started on your desktop with some initial info. You can delete this once you are up to speed.

Seriously? The root of C:...

Maybe that's why it crashes P3D when I load the aircraft.

Sorry -- I don't understand the concern. Reality XP, Flight1, REX, all have folders in the C root directory. Why do you think having the GPS Management tool in the folder C:\FLYSIMWARE is causing crashes?

BTW, if you are using P3Dv4.5, you need the latest versions of the REX WX Radar and GTN 750/650 if you are using these gauges. Not having the latest versions of these gauges will cause a CTD.

The GPS selection executable literally just changes the Panel.cfg in the aircraft folder... You could have it anywhere on your PC, and it wouldn't make a difference for anything involving the aircraft's sim performance. It's just a GUI to easily change the GPS systems without having to manually replace a panel config.
