Look for the folder:

AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache

Right click on the folder and ZIP it to a safe location. Done!

Getting ready to do the same thing and want to clarify what your saying...are you saying to right click on the "LocalCache" folder, save it somewhere safe...and then put that into the new computer's "AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe" folder...replacing the one generated by the new loading of the sim?

 

Thanks

Apologize if this is a "dumb" question...I see several references to the "MSFS AP" folders...don't find anything named that.  Where would I find it on a PC Store version?

Thanks

You should only replace the simobjects folder. That's all you probably need.
