CTarana45 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I've have an aircraft I want to delete, but I can't find the folder! Christopher Tarana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSeaman Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Alpha AH-64 ? Alphasim Ah-64 ? Virtavia AH-64 ? I'm good at wild ###ed guesses. :cool: Was this Alpha/Virtavia or were you downloading from one of those back-alley sites? :rolleyes: If you have FS Repaint loaded, normally you could load the a/c then get the file path from the texture files. In this case, I'm guessing (again) it may have been used as AI? Edited February 16, 2021 by BobSeaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson_new Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Well, in FS9 it's pretty simple - it must be in the FS2004/Aircraft folder. The obvious thing is to look in all the logically named folders (folders with AH-64, Alphasim, Virtavia, etc. in their name) and open the aircraft.cfg file by double clicking it. Then look for a line: ui_variation = IAF APACHE If that doesn't work, try this: 1. In the Aircraft folder create a folder called Removed. 2. Drag or Cut/Paste all of the suspect aircraft folders into this Removed folder. 3. In FS9 Aircraft/Select Aircraft. 4. Is it still there? 5. Narrow down the search by bring back each folder and then repeating step 3.

CTarana45 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 I think what happened is folders in Windows can be dragged with the mouse! :) I suspect that's what happened here! Thanks, Guys! Christopher Tarana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I'd do it the easy way. You have two options: 1) Use Fileseek and search for the words "IAF Apache" to search in the FS9 folder or any words from the description. Now Fileseek will find the aircraft.cfg file and as a consequence you'll see it's path. i.e folder name. 2) Use Everything.exe and under the Search option chose Advanced Search and enter IAF Apache in the option called "A word or phrase in the file." https://www.fileseek.ca/ https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/ OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTarana45 Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 It found this one fine, Boeing AH-64D Apache Longbow US Army, this is one that belongs there! :pilot: Windows says the Fs9\Aircraft folder has 30,000 files in it! I have no issues with ignoring it! :cool: Christopher Tarana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
