March 15, 20233 yr Mannaged to get reshade working without a batch file. When installing Reshade 5.7 just point to gamelaunchhelper in your xboxgames microsoft flight simulator content folder; Using Reshade with Xbox App/Game Pass Installs In the past getting Reshade and UWP to cooperate has required multiple steps of varying difficulty, however Microsoft has since changed their processes to allow direct access to game files for all users by default. As a result, the steps required to get Reshade working on Game Pass games is much less complicated. The steps may vary slightly but the basics remain consistent: Define your install path. You can set this by clicking on the profile icon in the top left of the xbox app> Settings > General, Under the section Game Install Options you can set the game folder destination. Install as normal. Depending on which method you intend to use, the next step will either be: Manual Install - Place the files in the same folder as the game's .exe Reshade Installer - launch the installer guide and browse to the game folders, from here you will need to locate gamelaunchhelper.exe as trying to use the game's own .exe will most likely produce an error. Once you've successfully situated Reshade, launch the game and you should be able to use it as normal.

I had this working already by putting it in the exe.xml Problem is the exe.xlm will not execute a bat file. However, there are a number of free apps to convert a bat file into an exe file (google: bat to exe converter).
