July 19, 20241 yr Recently the XBOX server went down but now is up and I can run MSFS. When I ran MSFS for the first time after the outage it displays a screen for 'accessibilities settings' and asked if I wanted to reset to default and I select NEXT (not YES) there was a male voice talking about accessibilities settings and a few more screens which I selected NEXT hoping that nothing would be changed but NO it then asked if I wanted to stream online or not (I selected online) and then came the crunch, all my assistance settings have been changed to EASY and so I will have to try and remember what settings I had unless someone can tell me if there is a .cfg file on my PC which contains all the previous assistance settings and how to 'resurrect it'. Oh wow. Just found that also my user created camera settings are also lost. Thanks to Satya and his team! Grrrrrrr!

July 19, 20241 yr Happened to me on PC a couple weeks ago. I had to reset all the assistance settings. Took about 10 minutes. Was not fun. But I had remembered all my settings because this was the 3rd or 4th time it happened. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

July 19, 20241 yr Author Thanks. Yes I remembered most of the settings especially the important (for me) ones. Still annoying that they are lost as well as camera setting which I have 3 different ones for different aircraft instrument panels and that makes it difficult to remember.

July 19, 20241 yr It's happened to me many times. There's no pattern to it that I can work out yet. I've had to take a screen shot of all of my settings (pages and pages) as I always forget to change one or two back. And yes, it happened again randomly last night between two sessions and after a full and proper shutdown. More annoyingly, my mouse buttons have also randomly changed...and I've never, ever, messed with those - they should still be default.

July 19, 20241 yr Author Opps I didn't loose my camera settings. My controls settings has been set back to default and after restoring my joystick to its rightful 'profile' (Logitech Extreme) my camera positions worked. Thanks goodness.
