If you downloaded this great little program and used it a few times but seem to still go back to just hitting the FSX icon in your taskbar then you probably have missed a few updates. Actually, depending on when you installed it and how many times you actually used it you might have missed a bunch of updates. So, for those who haven't messed with it in a while, it's now up to V7.4 :salute:
 
Here's the latest updated installer I could find at flightsim.com

FSX - FSX Utilities
FSX/P3D SimLauncher

FSX/P3D SimLauncher v7.2. This application can be used as a launcher application for both FSX and Prepar3D. Flights can be loaded before launching the simulator or when the simulator is already running. New flights can be created by selecting one of the installed aircraft, selecting the start location (runway or parking position), selecting the type of weather and the time of day. Improvements: FTX region and lights switching, startup camera selection, recently loaded flights menu, faster startup, tuning of COM and NAV radios, profiles, ephemeris, nearby airports and numerous fixes and improvements. By Maarten Boelens. (Previous version had 672 downloads)
 
Yep, but when you run SimLauncher it automatically finds the latest update, downloads it and installs. Just before I typed the initial post I ran it and it installed 7.4. Heck it wasn't all that long ago, it was just 5.1 I think, lol. . .the guy is constantly updating.
 
I am definitely a believer Ed, this guy is dedicated to the project. For me, this is my entry into P3D. Fantastic program.:applause:
