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.

well... 99% of the time it's installing a program that overwrites the terrain.cfg. as far as a specific program that does it more often than others, not sure. I've probably reinstalled FSX between 8-10 times, and I always vary the install order, sometimes ORBX causes it to show up, sometimes the FSaddon stuff, quite a few times UTX. Once, It happened when I installed the FSX Acceleration pack over an existing, working install of FSX like you're not supposed to do. I haven't found an install order that works every time for me, so I can't really lay blame on one addon. generally I assume that I will have this pop up, and I know how to fix it, so no big dealThe simple answer is start up the UTX Setup tool and let it verify that it's entries are present in the Terrain.Cfg file.
The more difficult answer is "what have you installed that would overwrite the existing Terrain.cfg entries?" I could wager a guess, because 99% of the time it's the result of one thing. But I'll skip the mini-rant, for now.
