July 7, 2025Jul 7 Computer crashed while I was flying (A Faulty DIMM). Once back and running, AAO refused to start with the error message shown inhttps://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/625787-configuration-database-error/. Stopped AAO and found out "ConfigDatabase_MSFS.xml" is corrupt. No worries, renamed version 1 of the backup file to be "ConfigDatabase_MSFS.xml". After a closer examination, I found this version missing some of the newly created Assigned Buttons. So, I restored the backup file via Tools --> Restore Database from backup C:\Users\XXXXX\Documents\LorbyAxisAndOhs Files\AxisAndOhs_MSFS_DB_Backup_20250705112138.zip which was the most current and the missing Assigned Buttons are back in action! But now, I have lost the stored Virtual Instrument Layouts. These were created over the years and if I can restore them that would be great. https://imgur.com/a/XNErJUD Apat from this issue, AAO seems to be working ok.

July 7, 2025Jul 7 Commercial Member Layouts are saved to the file "DesktopWebFips_<simulator>.xml". It should be present in the backup? LORBY-SI
July 7, 2025Jul 7 Author Hmm, interesting. The size of "DesktopWebFips_<simulator>.xml" in the Zip file I used to restore AAO is 1KB. However, I restored anoter "DesktopWebFips_<simulator>.xml" from an earlier Zip file, and vola! my Layouts are back. Thanks for the prompt response. There is an another issue with the restored AAO. I think I should be able to get that fxied myself.
