  1. Member 36 265 posts Hi, I’m now flying the A320NEO pretty successfully online with VATSIM in MSFS2020. One big problem I have is the messages dialogue window pops up right in the middle of the screen and this is a horrible distraction when on landing approach for example. Can it be moved? In P3D and FSX for example, the messages are of course in white or red on a green bar at the top of the screen - well out of the way. But in MSFS2020 they are right in the middle and cannot be moved out of the way with the mouse .... I have the registered version of FSUIPC7. Is the answer in there? Would love to see if this box can be moved. Don’t want to hide it because I need to see VATSIM text messages - just want to move it. cheers Lee
  2. Good to hear Pete! Yes, hopefully this year, holidays can begin again. And I'm 65 this year !! 😀 Cheers, Lee
  3. Hello Dave, Yes, I have this utility - but it cannot work because I cannot MOVE the Community and One Store folders onto a new drive !! Until I can do that, I'm stuffed. I used MOD Manager to make a backup of the Community folder, but it will not back up the One Store subfolder - so I cannot make any links until the folder structure is fully installed on my H: drive so that it can be recognised as such. Cheers, Lee
  4. Thanks Pete, I knew you'd have the answer! I guessed this might be the thing, so yes, I'll do it. Thanks for the reply. How are you? Been a while since I saw you last! Hope you are well sir! Regards Lee
  5. Hi, Not sure exactly where to put this question, but I'm posting it to see if the experts can help. So far, even MS Tech Support cannot provide and answer .... I now have one big issue. As I begin to explore and enjoy Flight Simulator 2020 more and install liveries and scenery add-ons, I am going to hit a space problem. I have MSFS2020 installed in it's default installation on my 1TB SSD main C: drive. The full path:- C:\Users\<MyName>\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community I am told that it is possible to create a COMMUNITY folder on a different drive and "link" it so that MSFS reads only this folder as the default location. Currently, my COMMUNITY folder as shown above is encrypted and I can only install or delete files/subfolders from inside this folder. I have tried everything to change the permissions on this folder - but I cannot MOVE, or COPY anything from within this folder (Nor the ONE STORE folder) to another location !! I have asked this question on the MSFS Forum and instead of telling me how I might do it, they keep suggesting threads which have pretty much no relevence to my problem! I just want to know how I might release this so-called encryption so that I can set up a new COMMUNITY folder on my new 1TB SSD additional drive (H:\) and get MSFS2020 to see it. Anyone tell me how to do it? Cheers, Lee
  6. Ok John, Just so I understand this ..... Ofcourse, I assume that FSUIPCv6 will only be active (running?) when I use P3D to fly. And if I understand you correctly, since FSUIPCv7 is now an application that is to be "run" - then as long as it is not running or active when I am flying in P3D that should be fine, yes? But when I want to fly MSFS2020, I run the newer FSUIPCv7 - and since P3D is not running, FSUIPCv6 will not be active and so should not interfere with v7? Am I understanding this correctly? Thank you Lee
  7. Hi First visit to this forum having just registered .... I currently use P3Dv4.5 as my main simulator - and I have a registered version of FSUIPCv6. I have been a long time registered user of FSUIPC since ages ago. For the moment, P3D is my primary Simulator. I fly for a number of virtual airlines, a handful of which do not yet support MSFS2020. However, I have been flying MSFS2020 since August, mainly the Cessna and doing videos exploring the new SIM, but now, having flown a few test flights in the FlyByWire A320NEO, I am beginning to think about doing some of my VA flights in the new SIM, as it evolves. But I still use P3D along side the new SIM and wish to continue to do so for the moment until we reach a time when moving over with study level aircraft becomes a reality. My question is this .... Does FSUIPCv7 which is needed for any Flight Data Monitor software to interact with the new SIM, replace version 6? Or do I install FSUIPCv7 along side the existing v6 (in a different folder)? Naturally, I want to be able to continue to take advantage of flying in P3D as I currently do, using the mapping I have for the PMDG 744, 737NGX and FSLabs A320 for example ... but in order to use FDM software for any VA that supports MSFS2020, I need FSUIPCv7. Is there any conflict? Any helpful comments to help me understand this, would be welcome. Thank you. Lee James West Sussex UK Pilot of BAW9DV
