  • Special Server Maintenance

    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 we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Complete reset every time I load up

Title says it all really, out of the blue my install has bricked itself.
Every single time I launch the sim it has completely reset itself as if it were a fresh install.
Anyone been through this or similar? Tried a search but most of the results I can find are 2024 specific.

I've been thinking of switching to 2024 anyway so this might just be the nudge to force my hand as I'm obviously not going to jump through all of Microflops hoops and rebuild my controls every time I want to fly a few circuits.
 
Not completely, but my control assignments do. It's effing annoying.

And I'm not moving over to 2024 anytime soon. Controller wise, it's worse.
 
I have MSFS 2020, and that periodically happens, as recently as last week. Resetting the Microsoft Store app has worked for me:

  1. On your keyboard, press the “Win Logo” + “R” keys (Win+R)
  2. Type: WSReset.exe and press Enter
  3. A black window will pop up
  4. Wait until the pop-up window disappears and the Store comes up
  5. Reboot your computer
When I use this method, all of my MSFS 2020 settings are retained, and the program loads normally.

I owe you a beer, just tried this and it booted up normally.
