Thanks, Pete. My big mistake was in thinking the Profile name itself was where it was looking for the substring, not in the 1= part. Like I said, silly question! Thanks again for helping me sort it out. James

Sorry for what is probably a silly question -- but I've read through the documentation and searched this forum and can't seem to find the answer. I'm using 5.124. I understand how to add a specific aircraft to a profile (e.g. I can add the Jetstar VH-VFK A320 to my "A320" profile). What I'm missing is the ability to tell FSUIPC, as I'm pretty sure you could in earlier versions, to apply that profile by default to all FSL A320 specific aircraft. In other words, I'm looking for a way to avoid adding each aircraft manually. Why do I care? Since I fly all over the virtual world, I will often use a given specific livery/aircraft in a one-off flight. It's not unusual for me to have a new aircraft each time I fly. It's a little thing, but am I missing a way to automatically have my A320 profile apply to all FSL A320s without having to manually add them? Thanks in advance for your help! James

Pete, apologies -- I see now that it's correctly deleting new files as it goes, but that it wasn't culling older autosaves from before when I put the "alsomanage" lines in. Sorry to waste your time! I've manually deleted the old files, and it should be good to go from here on in. Thanks again, James

Pete, Just installed the updated module and tested it.

Pete, Just checked, and I had been on a slightly earlier version of FSUIPC5, but I just installed the latest version. No difference -- it's still not deleting the files. No idea if the AlsoManage lines work in FSUIPC4, unfortunately. I went straight from FSX to P3D last month and FSUIPC5 is the first version I'm using with P3D. Can you clarify a bit where exactly I'd put the quotemarks around the complete path, in case that's the issue? e.g. is it AlsoManage1="C:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\PMDG\PMDG 747 QOTS II\PanelState\*.0.rte" Thanks, James

I'm sure I'm doing something very simple wrong here, but I've tried to follow both the FSUIPC manual and what I've found online from people using P3D. Never had any problems with FSX. The extra files never get culled -- they keep building up.
