Post subject: How to regenerate a new FSX.cfg

Can anyone guide me as to how to regenerate/ create a new .cfg for FSX, Can't find it. done all sorts of searches, even contacted MS support, they can't help.

If I remember correctly in the Fs9 days one use to hold 1 or 2 keys while the game was loading in order to do this, can't remember which keys.

Eventough I can't find it the game works

I am running Vista

Actually I believe you delete (or better yet,, rename) the existing FSX.CFG and a new one will be built when FSX starts up the next time. _________________ "Once your reputation is ruined, you can live quite freely."

Stuppy: Yes, I know... I have nnow restarted FSX 4X since last night in order to find it.

In Vista your are supposed to find it:

C:\User\y comp.name\ Application Data (Is not there)\ Microsoft\FSX\FSX.cfg (isn't there either)

Really hope I don't have to do a reinstall.

Stragely the sim works perfectly.

Silly question but you do have 'show hidden files' turned on ??? I ask because you can't see application data, you need this for other software to function.
