    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.

Windows 11?

Does anyone know if FSX SE is or will be compatible with Windows 11? I will no doubt upgrade to Windows 11 next year with a new computer, but truthfully it is going to be a budget-oriented vs a performance-oriented build. So MSFS 2020 requirements will not be a driving factor with my next computer.

Thanks,

Tommy
 
Probably will be. So far, from what I gather, Windows 11 brings more security features which tend to take up a lot of CPU cycles, a new user interface, the return of widgets, better connectivity with other devices (Android), native HDR, and Xbox style direct storage. Other than that, it is very much Windows 10.

Thanks for the reply stansdds! I am only updating to Windows 11, because a couple of our local banks will no longer support Windows 7 after December 31. With the small budget I have set, I'll be lucky if the new Windows 11 rig can even match what I already have. Not sure if I'm going to upgrade to a touch screen monitor yet.

You can always keep FSX on your current computer and buy a laptop for the financial stuff.
