il88pp Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If you have FSX-Box installed first. And you also install FSX-Steam FSX-Steam will create new folder names, such as C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX-SE and the screenshot folder C:\Users\\Pictures\Flight Simulator X - Steam Edition The FSX-Box screenshot folder is C:\Users\\Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files And all is well. But.... What if I then decide to uninstall FSX-Box ????? -1- Nothing. -2- Or will FSX-Steam suddenly start using the \FSX path?????????? So, on closing, will Steam from then on store FSX.cfg in: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX ? And are STEAM screenshots from now on saved in: C:\Users\\Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files ? (I'm mostly interested in what happens to the screenshots) Thank you, il88pp [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evm Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 - 1 - What is in the registry of SE, remains that way. You would have to consciously change the registry entries yourself. AFAIK the only time that SE looks for it's older brother is on installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBKHOU Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yep, Once it's installed, it will keep the same original for SE paths. Mine has separate folders for each being I have both. I have no plans to delete the box version, but if I did, SE would stay as is. I have a "Flight Simulator X Files" folder, and also a "Flight Simulator X - Steam Edition Files" folder under the pictures folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
