New PMDG 737 700 MSFS 2024 not creating options ini file

Featured Replies

I own and have installed the 737 600, and 800 from PMDG for MSFS 2024. Have had the 600 and 800 for a while.  I installed the 700 variant today.  I created a flight in MSFS 2024 and proceeded past the Ready to Fly and jumped into the cockpit.  I set Cold and Dark for startup and panel state via the FMC.  This is supposed to create an options ini file in the Work folder located in Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekybed8bbwe\LocalState\WASM\MSFS2024\pmdg-aircraft-737\work folder.  There is an options ini file in the 736 and 738 folders so I could set the data broadcast.  Anyone have a clue why this file is not created for the new 700 aircraft? 

Can’t verify right now, but didn’t PMDG move to a commons path outside of the specific aircraft paths?

Great question because I have an "options.ini" file in C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\WASM\MSFS2024\pmdg-aircraft-737\work.

Try starting a new flight and prep the flight deck for departure, including aligning the IRS's - see if that generates an "options.ini" file for you.

When you open Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekybed8bbwe\LocalState\WASM\MSFS2024\pmdg-aircraft-737\work folder - do you see all the other files and directories as they appear in the image I posted above?
