Aircraft config 'Access denied'

Recommended Posts

Can someone please help me...

 

Trying to add a texture to the default CRJ 700.

When I add the line in the 'Aircraft CFG' file it wont allow me to save it over the original file. I get an 'Access denied' statement.

 

Any help would be appreciated...

You are having a bad case of "UAC" not letting you make changes to your Sim because you have it in the default Program Files area of your computer. Google UAC and how to shut it down while editing your FSX.

Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!  ✈️

If you installed FSX in the default Program Files (x86) directory, then you are going to have endless problems like this because of the security protections/restrictions Microsoft puts there. Better to install FSX in an alternate path where you will have unfettered access to edit files.

Thanks for the help, guys.

I rooted around in properties and changed the security settings for administrator priviledges and got it to finally work...thank you oh wise and wonderful Zippy/Dave.

 

That's why we're paid the "Big Bucks"! Glad you got it going!
