ac103010 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Tried adjusting my seat height by increasing the first number in the VIEW section of the aircraft.cfg file. But nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrzippy Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Seat height in the 2D cockpit is Ctrl+Q or Ctrl+shift+Q in the VC it's Shift+enter and Shift+backspace. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ac103010 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Yes, Top Gun. Meant to edit the cfg file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac103010 Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Top Gunn, Why does Microsoft make things so bloody difficult. Just started to edit the fsx.cfg file and, horrors, I haven't got one. So I did some searches and find it's probably a hidden file. So I looked to see how to make it visible. And all the well meaning people that have posted methods have all come to zilch. Why? Because for some reason Microsoft sees fit to change things, methinks. Examples: One guy says: C:\documents and settings\username\......................... I HAVEN'T GOT A DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS folder Another guy says: Start, Select Control Panel, Appearance and personalisation.............. I CAN'T DO START, CONTROL PANEL, because when I hit start I haven't got a Control Panel. So I did a search. Nothing comes up for FSX.cfg. Any ideas would be gratefully received. The only good thing is, I've managed, by a reoundabout way, to restart in the default flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac103010 Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 I think I've figured out what's happened to my sub folders and FSX.cfg. When I did some searches I find that my C:\users\Alan1\.......... is quarantined ????? Now I have to figure out why and what to do to get them back. Microsoft help is no help at all.

mrzippy Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Quarantined? Sounds like the work of an antivirus program. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UPHILL3 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Assuming you have malware, or virus apps, quarantined sounds they found suspicious files in the Users directories... Could be false positives or real trouble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac103010 Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Yes, it's in my Norton's quarantine folder. It's what to do about it is the problem I'm having to look into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
