where is file stored for input


Recommended Posts

I have spent a lot of time re programming the software with keyboard, ch yoke and rudders and such. Where is that file stored so I can save it. I read someone said today that one of the updates took everything back to default settings. Hate to have to go through all of the reprogramming again. I looked around, but this software is definitely different than FSX.

 

Any help would be very much appreciated.

I can't find the file either. I have old Saitek controllers that are not recognized and had to tediously program manually. It would be nice to back up that file.

There's a config file for each controller, e.g. one for yoke and another for pedals, but they have diabolical folder names such as: 35680D0DAC1548689410E4B527020639.

 

You'll find them all in a folder called SystemAppData, which I just copied complete and saved elsewhere, and you can find it here:

 

C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData

 

The actual config folders are in:

 

SystemAppData\wgs\00090000088CC6A9_00000000000000000000000069F80140

 

I know I'd never remember all that, so I just copied the whole SystemAppData folder!

Thanks tiger, but I do not have a folder called Microsoft.FlightSimulator_... in the packages folder. I am showing hidden files and folders. I also installed through Steam.

The Steam directory structure is different to the MS Store structure - try doing a search for SystemAppData.

I have located the controller profiles for the Steam version. Thanks to AlexE75 on the Flightsimulator forum for this info.

 

Located in:

Steam-folder\userdata\\1250410\remote\
