Wednesday at 01:55 AM2 days Hello Gang.After the latest update I notice that my MSFS2024 got really stuttery and with less than desirable performance, contrary to the well oiled machine I had going on pre-update. I decided to clean the shaders and WASM folders as suggested by several folks. After deleting the WASM files I noticed that my control assignments got messed up and not even re-assigning them would bring them back. Luckily, I was able to retrieve my old deleted WASM files from the recycle bin, reinstate them, and voila....I got my control assignments back. Is deleting the WASM files really necessary and worth the hassle? Sincerely, Dennis D. Müllert System Specs: MoBo: MSI MAG X870 Tomahawk WiFi ATX AM5. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D.

Wednesday at 03:04 AM2 days I never do this. However, if any problems arise, where the cause is not clear, then keep it in mind.

Wednesday at 08:01 AM2 days I never ever delete anything at all, other than the whole sim in my cycle of uninstall / reinstall 🤣Lastest updates, for the last 4 months, have been working great with absolutely no cleaning of whatever folders, including Nvidia system shader folders.I also have quited using that "mantra" of cleaning all nvidia driver footprints, using DDU and similar stuff... Only the Nvidia App, and it works just simple & beautiful, although if you don't want thet App to mess around with your MSFS 2024 settings you have to disable the automatic optimization for the game.

Not only do some AC developers suggest so but it also helped on my end with RJ and CRJ some time ago. now telll me that was placebo ;-) Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"
