    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.

Location of control config files?

I have been having difficulties assigning controls to buttons on my Moza joystick that I hadn't had problems with before. I want to erase ALL controller settings for MSFS2020, and may do the same for 2024.

I read about a string command I could enter which will do the trick, but it isn't working (I think because the string command may be for the Microsoft version, not Steam, which I have.)

Any assistance in helping me locate this elusive file? Thx, NC

On my Windows PC, for MSFS, the controller settings are located at:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\wgs

Unfortunately, they are binary files, so I can't read or edit them.

However, controller profiles can be deleted from within MSFS 2020:
  1. Options > Controls Options > click on the “Controller" tab
  2. Under “Controller”, use the left / right arrows to select a controller profile
  3. At the bottom of the window, click on “Open Preset Manager”
  4. Click on the garbage can icon
