  1. I have had reasonable success using the FSUIPC auto save function (has to be a paid registered copy). Shut down your flight wherever you are, as usual. When next start up of MSFS 2020, and get to the global selection page, hit the shift key and go to the saved flight section and look for the auto save entries and choose the latest one; when FS starts go to PAUSE (mine is FSX style PAUSE which I have mapped to my keyboard - used P for pause on, then rightALT-P to unpause) and check out settings, then unpause and try to salvage the flight - I have usually been successful.

  2. I concluded a long time ago that computers can sometimes be weird! This one is no exception. When I went back to the folder of saved flights, there were no longer any shortcuts with the FSX icon............. So I followed your recommendations, made a copy of the folder and uninstalled FSX. Everything seems to be working as normal. Thank you Steve and Tim for your input Nigel
  3. This message is addressed to Tim Wright, he seems to have lots of knowledge on the inner workings of MSFS2020, but others please chip in………………… Accidently I found the folder where all my saved flights in MSFS 20-20 were located so I tried to start the sim directly from the shortcuts – surprise - FSX started up! Then I noticed all the shortcut icons for the flights had FSX icons. I would like to uninstall FSX but what would that do to all my saved flights? I guess I could do a system save before doing so and if things go awry, a system restore afterwards? Nigel Vancouver
  4. Thx Tim, this is the best tip I have received since day 1! Nigel, Vancouver
  5. I am having exactly the same problem. Looking forward to eventually seeing a solution. Nigel Vancouver
  6. fyi -neither version will work in P3Dv4, it bounces all around. Nigel Vancouver
