Removing lighting enhancement

If it is a newer type installation (I assume so as you managed to install the mod), do a search for in windows explorer for MSFS2020.ARPC, as the file path can be very long.

These are the files (I found the old zip).

dinput8.dll
MSFS2020.ARPC.asi
MSFS2020.ARPC.ini

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

MSFS2020.ARPC.asi and MSFS2020.ARPC.ini are in Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimularor

No problem there.

But what about dinput8.dll? It shows up in six file locations.

Delete them all?

Plus there are two instances of a file named dinput8.dll.mui (multi-lingual User Interface).

Is it part of this? If it is, should it deleted too?

No!  Absolutely not.  Just the one you put into the MSFS folder.  It wasn't there before you added it for the mod, so delete only that one.

Other apps can have another instance of dinput8.dll in other locations, and if you delete them, those apps can fail.

Glad I asked! Thanks a lot.

Was dinput8.dll part of the sky color mod? I thought the mod just consisted of the two MSFS2020.ARPC files. I see I do have a dinput8.dll file in my Content folder where the two MSFS2020.ARPC files were, but I don't recall putting the dinput8.dll file there. Maybe a memory problem on my part! 🤕

You will find a dinput8.dll file is in the zip you downloaded for the mod.
