November 9, 200718 yr Ever since using FSX and Vista, I can't SAVE changes to my aircraft config.! I can change it in the Notepad format, but when I go to save it, and click SAVE, it says "cannot create the C:Program FilesMicrosoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Sim Xsim ObjectsAirplanesB737-800aircraft.cfg file"Then it goes to a "Save As" screen with the file name "aircraft" and doesn't allow me to save anything...it says it already exists.Perhaps I should ask this above question in the Hardware forum, but I thought I'd start here hoping someone else had this problem and solved it. I used to be able to just click SAVE in the file menu of my aircraft config and that would be that. Stan
