• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Cannot Install Repaints

Strange thing that has happened using Win 10 in that when I copy and paste the a/c info into the cfg folder and then go to save it,
it tells me that access is denied. I have never had this happen with a previous computer also using Win 10. Any ideas on how to correct
this issue?
 
The best cure is to not install FSX in the Program Files folder.

What you can do is copy the aircraft.cfg file to your Desktop, make your edits and save, then copy it back to the aircraft folder.

cheers,

Well I probably be shot down, but as my pcs are not networked and no-one else uses them, I have UAC off. After an update I sometimes find I'm getting that "you must have permission etc" and I hate that so ever since I've had UAC on my os (Vista in 2008) I've turned UAC off so I go back to UAC and pull the slider back down to 0.

UAC = user account control
