Just out of interest my fsx was installed by my PC supplier to a separate drive
E:\Program Files (x86)\
UAC is turned off and everything is installed as Administrator.
I read many posts saying to avoid installing to
C:\Program Files (x86)\
As this can cause issues as Program Files (x86)\ is a protected area of windows
As my path is actually E:\Program Files (x86)\ ( my PC also has a C:\Program Files (x86)\ )
am I avoiding these potential problems or does E have the same restrictions as C and it sthe name “Program Files (x86)” that causes problems?
I fortunately don’t have a particular issue at present ( did I really dare say that!!) but in the event of a reinstall in the future just want to be prepared to change it if necessary. (although I do image my disk now and again as a back up to an external USB!)
Any info appreciated
Regards
