    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

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
