Yes, that's what I meant. Thanks for the tip

Hmmm... when I tried to play one of the videos I got this message: "“a problem caused the program to stop working correclty. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available” .....however, the Simulator itself works.

And the correct answer is...... the alternate FS9.exe that no one is allowed to talk about. After installing she-who-cannot-be-named, FS installed. Then the screen went blank. But I remembered coming across a reference here (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/games_windows_10/microsoft-flight-simulator-issue-after-windows-10/0b2e3bca-7977-4ef1-ad2a-3c3edbd47c82?page=2&auth=1) on a Microsoft communitysite that FS doesn;t like to run in full screen mode. So I pressed ALT+Enter and the desktop appeared with the "Getting Started" screen. So hopefully I can fly! (after memorizing the training video....). Thanks for your suggestions. Now hopefully my old copy of Combat Flight Simulator 3 runs..,.. Jay in Toronto

OK, I've turned on show hidden files. Still can't find it. It's supposed to be in Users\YOUR NAME\App Data\Roaming\Microsoft\. There is is a Microsoft folder, but only other folders inside it -- no file FS9.CFG

Hi Just installed FS9 (original disks) on my Win10 computer but it won't run . Have Disk 4 in the drive, have followed most of the instructions here ( https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/837195) upgraded to FS9 to version 9.1, changed the Documents location back to defaut, created a Flight Simulaor Files folder, One recommendation is rebuild the FS9.CFG configuration files BUT no matter how I search, I can't find this file. When I try to launch FS9, I get an admin message :Do you want this app to make changes to your PC" . I click yes, and then nothing. Doesn't even try to access the CD. All suggestions gratefully welcome.

Hi It took me a while after a move, but I have finally found my disks for FS2004 and Combat Flight Simulator 3. Will they run on my present computer, which has Windows 10? Hardware is an AMD FX-8320 CPU, 8 MB of RAM, and a Radeon HD64350 video card. The input will be a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick. Jay in Toronto
