Does this still apply if the Installation is NOT on the C: drive

Understood thanks

The main reason I installed it to a non C: drive is the size of the disc - my F drive is 1.5TB, whereas my C drive is smaller and didn't have the capacity for it.

Could we try and stick to the question I asked, and not go off on a tangent of one versus the other. I asked for some help, not "mines longer than yours"

Hi Lorby Many thanks for the information provided. I'm just in the process of re-installing to a non C: drive. Will the new cfg file still be in the C: drive when I've finished, or in the actual drive where the programme is - in my case F:\

Good Morning members Having just migrated from FSX under Windows 7 a few days ago to Prepar3D under Windows 10, I have an issue with the cfg file in that it is only 6 lines in length and bears no resemblance to the 2 pages of the previous FSX file (Hopefully at this point I'm going to attach my file) - no, didn't work so attached is the file in text form: <?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration> <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true"> <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/> </startup> </configuration> Any help, suggestions good, bad or indifferent would be much appreciated.

...and once you've done these moves is there a way to permanently save them for next time? Paul Jennings

Not in my Intro manual they're not - Page 123 refers to the "Right Pitot Heat" and P125 references "Right Tire Fail Right" Paul Jennings

bmi please (old or new whichever is easiest !)

Hello All It is fixed.... How the hell I’ve done it, I have no REAL idea ! I started off by using the “Repair” option, but that didn’t resolve it, before reading the Avsim FSX Config guide. I also downloaded and used the AVG Anti virus Remover tool, and although this said it couldn’t find any products, it took a while to execute the programme, after which it restarted my system and VOILA…one Happy Bunny

Hi All I have been advised by a well-respected forum member to post this in the hope that I can get an answer. I have read the rule regarding screen shots, but the screen shots forum seems to be for stunning images, of which mine is certainly not - in short my B777 is missing the nosewheel when viewed from the side, and has part of the fan showing underneath the aircraft. Having said all that, I am doubtful that my attachment has actually attached ! My OS is Windows 7 Professional, 64bit and FSX + Acceleration. My Anti-virus software was set to exclude the installation as per the suggestion in the Manuals Any help is appreciated Paul Jennings

No worries...making the changes as Brian suggested has worked for me...Happy Days !

Hi Brian Have found the file and noticed that the line was set to 0 (Zero) Have changed it to 1 AND saved it....will let you know if and when I restart the Sim Many thanks Paul

Hi Guys Thanks for the quick reply - Brian...appreciate that, will try and find the cfg file and check (but it is specific in that it is the same error message and always after making this change)...and olli4740 not sure as it "looks for a solution to the problem" and then restarts FSX

Hi Members. Recently purchased the Aerosoft Extended (a download) and after taking the time and trouble to read the manuals discovered an issue with a font affecting the ND display and MCDU II. After posting on the Aerosoft forum I got an answer to the problem but the solution in itself has generated a further issue. To solve the initial issue the high-resolution VC option box has to be ticked. Either way I do it (from the Settings screen or from the Settings menu within FSX) the simulator crashes with a fatal error and restarts and I'm back to square one. I can force it to work by selecting a different aircraft, making the change and then loading the aerosoft a/c, but it's not ideal. Is there a change (or addition) I can make to the FSX.cfg file to make this VC option active on a permanent basis. Many thanks Paul

Hi members In the 3D views, can the various wingview (views) be changed from the drop down menus at the top of the page to be activated by the numeric keypad. You could do it in FS9 with 1+5, 3+5 etc etc, but not seemingly in FSX Many thanks Paul

Enter it as F370 and not /370
