Thank you Steve,
Yes, I will give it a try. I have so much experience now with reinstalling XP ;-) that I can always come back.
In fact, after rethinking, I don't worry about the plugin anymore, as they go into each software as the name says.
The Saitek/Logitech drivers; that's, probably, another history.
The drivers for Panels, Yoke and Rudder work out of the box on both softwares.
The FIP panels is the most tricky one. I use them in XP with the platform of FSX Times Gauges, that does not use the Logitech drivers, but I will have to install those for msfs...
Anyway: Let's go for it and I keep you updated
Well: Some frustrating hours later.........
MSFS 2020 does not even recognize my keyboard!!
Even taking off the Brake is not possible with key board so I had to toggle with mouse in the Cessna itself.
Then of course, you don't wonder that the Logitech/Saitek stuff is not a lot better.
Yes: The very basics as Yoke and rudder did work so I could take off.
"Of course" No luck with Autopilot , Switch panel and Radios. So; no flaps, no AP use, no Trim....
Anyway: The only reason to persist could be the scenarios, but really; I want to practice my flying, not tourism.
So; Bye Bye MS...... Back to XPlane basics plus waiting for XP 12?
BTW: To get my XP back to normal, I had to uninstall MS plugin, Saitek Trim driver etc. Some of the Logitech items inside XP where disturbed by the later FS install, it seems.

Hi,
I have a notification of 2 unread PM, but in the inbox I find 0 messages + 2 "stored" messages.
Cannot access these stored messages nor delete them.
Any ideas, please?

Hi, May I continue on this thread with an additional question?
I have X-Plane 11:55 perfectly configured with all the Saitek hardware running perfectly.
Now I want to try the FS2020 by the X Box App in windows 10.
Should I do as you told before:
1) Install drivers (I have them already for XP) So I can pass this one.
2) Install MSFS plugin for msfs. Here is my DOUBT: Will there be conflicts between the plugin for XP and the same plugin for MSFS?
Thanks for your suggestions

Thank you again, Steve, for your kind assistance.
But I think that FS could have taken care of integrating all those very current equipment as the Logi/Saitek are, to not have to bind or setup all of that.
I mean; I could understand if I wanted to use some home made joystick, but thes are universal from the last decade!
And then; a Keyboard Logitech. Thousands of them completely universal, and FS does not recognize it??
They should have worked more on that and less on putting the kangaroos in the bushes :-)
