Hi Bob, thanks for the reply. I had deleted the installation folder, but it seems it came back empty after reboot. However, the app was still very much alive, so it had squirreled itself somewhere Using the "everything" app, I found several instances for the MSFS2020_Autofps. Most of them in my C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming and one(MSFS2020_AutoFPS.exe) in the C:\Windows\Prefetch. I will remove the found instances to see if this removes the app persistence. NOTE: ok, saw where the removal method is to reinstall, and choose uninstall from the installer app. Will try. NOTE: 2 Ummm, that did not help. when I run the installer again, I can see the REMOVE caption. Clicking this bring up the comment, Please stop MSFS2020_AutoFPS and try again. How do I stop it. I see the little dog icon in my taskbar, but there is nothing to say STOP. Also trying to remove instances of it in my system, says Nah...its still open in another program etc Maybe the author could provide a 'how to remove this app if required" on the install process. @Reset XPDR

It seems a great little app. I am in the process of tidying my files up on my flight sim machine, in readiness for a new flight sim machine in a few months time for MSFS2024. An issue I found with MSFS2020_Auto 0.4.1 is the ability to remove it from my machine. I installed it to a named file. I thought by simply deleting the entire file structure, reboot my machine would remove the app. However, I find the little guy is a bit illusive to actually find its roots enabling me to remove it, then place in a better location. Every time MSFS2020fires up, so does this app. I did notice it created a log event. Any thoughts.

A Pilots LIfe V2 and PMDG-Fenix
por930 replied to Bobsk8's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Since I got the Fenix A320, I have noticed a few 'Max G Force violations, despite, to my knowledge, not infringing. I am almost sure it is the live weather I turn on. Though, yesterday in APL, I got pinged again for G Force in the Fenix with live weather off and using MSFS cloudy day. Looking at the Navigraph mapping where the various checks are provided under the map, one indicates G-force, and I never notice it moving greatly. I have also had to terminate a few flights because of phone calls or visitors arriving at letdown/approach or landing...After a 5-hour flight, not too good. The App owner, does not seem too bothered about code repairs or improvements. He used to reply once, but seems to have disappeared. -
A Pilot's Life Question
por930 replied to El Diablito's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Thanks for the reply LK Oo. I saw earlier in this topic, that the Discord had a FAQ list, and wondered how to arrive there. And, yes, the developer always answers emails pretty quickly. I just thought i could find any more info without troubling him. -
A Pilot's Life Question
por930 replied to El Diablito's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I have always struggled over the years using Discord. Most times I try, I seem to get kicked out due to "no invite", and then when I get asked for my email to verify, it says this email is registered...Well of course it is, I have a log in, and I'm trying to verify me?? I give up. When I log into Discord, I have no idea whatsoever how to find anything, and give up. Avsim is a great forum, very friendly and easy place to find things. I was trying to get to Simbit world - A pilots life v2, who I believe are on the Discord server? Any ideas? -

Trying to download the 2.2.1.101 update, so I can use program. But, download seems super very slow? -

That is a good point. As an official old sod, my memory is not the best these days...so my wife says...Anyway, I some times visit here and think..I was going to check some thing. I see a few posts and it comes back to me..Ummm..yes, the 747v3...now what is happening. I realise this is sacrilege here, but often wonder about a "good" A380? for FSX. I am sure RR wants to give a side stick a go one day....

I have the old big girl in flight now between YSSY and RJAA. Still solid as a rock with no vices.

Andre, pmdg guys are coders and flight sim technicians, not sales types who are in your face at every opportunity. If RR presented a quarterly newsletter to us, this is another job that takes him away from coding. As you see from the post by Paul above, flight sim guys are not noted for their salesmanship. Maybe if every one stopped inquiring about the new products, the pmdg salesman inclination would come to the front and we would get some news, if RR considered it useful. It will happen. While waiting, enjoy the 737/777 and for some of us oldies, the 747v1 and MD11.

Buy DX10 Scenery Fixer
por930 replied to por930's topic in The Official DX10 Scenery Fixer Support Forum
Thanks Steve, will look at that today. When I fire up FSX and choose DX10 Preview, then shut down and reload, the FSL A320 when chosen, no longer mentions your program, so I guess, FSL A320 is ok now just with the DX10 Preview loaded. Things seem to have stopped flashing, so, maybe ok now. I notice though, when you look at the scenery, ORBX YMML, I see black boxes around objects every where. Is this the ORBX scenery not happy with DX10? and does your program try and resolve these things? -
Buy DX10 Scenery Fixer
por930 replied to por930's topic in The Official DX10 Scenery Fixer Support Forum
Thanks for that Steve. I am in the process of getting the FSL A30X working, and they say when the A320 is loading, if I do not have DX10 preview working, the vas footprint is a lot higher than DX9. When I do this, I notice the scenery a bit flashy. So, do I assume your software stabilises the output and reduces the flashes? I have often wondered about Nvida inspector and if I should let this loose on my Win 7 system. I have a nvida card. -
I am looking to buy DX10 Scenery Fixer, but it does not seem to be available in FSS? Geoff

Hi Kyle, Looking on my(our) 777 manual, it says,"....Specifically, you may not sell, resell,trade or barter this software product/license without the permission of PMDG...". So, is what you are saying, PMDG will never give a licence holder permission! What about if I went to the P3D version, and I gave my FSX box away, as the conditions above seem to imply, if I receive some 'thing' for the box? Maybe reading the total amount of your conditions etc, (which I have not) this maybe covered. OR are PMDG really saying, I have purchased the license for the use of the product. When I no longer have use for the product, the software product license will lapse with me. As the original license owner, I am not able to transfer the license to any other person or entity for any reason, without PMDG permission? As I still want to use the MD11, looks like I will keep the FSX system, so the above comment, just out of curiosity.
-
So, with a pretty decent rig like you have, you use Windows ME or Vista !!!. Not sure if the 2+ days of work to uninstall 7 plus all other software and change windows to 10, reload FSX, all other software then lose my MD11 and 747v1 for no real gain. Maybe if I win lotto and go the P3D way, worth the hassle.

My Win 7 Flight Sim machine keeps asking for the Win 10 upgrade. It would seem from reading many posts, if I were to take up the free offer for Win 10: I need to do a clean install, rather than an upgrade? How does this happen, as my work machine simply upgraded and I saw no 'offer' for a clean upgrade version? Does this also mean I will no longer be able to use the PMDG MD11 and 747v1 if I only have Win 10? Do you think PMDG and other developers will provide future aircraft which will run on Win 7 and Win 10...or...sort of like the days when XP was everything and time to let go and move on!
