Thanks, Pete, I have to admit I was bloody frustrated!

OK, Pete, it is now working, but what a bloody kerfuffle! I had to go into the modules folder and change permissions for every user to aqllow full control, then cancel read only. I now have an INI file Thanks for the help

Yes Windows 10 64 Bit Home. I will re download FSUIPC in case it got corrupted during download. I have already tried a delete and reinstall with it, and with zero resulat, but I will try with the re download version Thanks

Sorry peter, I tired that, no INI file still. It will accept the assignments but will not save them. In the Modules folder, there is a documents subfolder there is a DLL file, an install log, copy attached, a DLL and a key file. Unhiding file types is always the first thing I do when I get a new system anyway Cathy FSUIPC5 Install.log

I kept wondering why Fsuipc was not keeping my control assignment, looked, no INI file, I don't have seperate prfiles for each plane, so what's wrong? can you assist, please? Insert other media Thanks

Sorry to to hear that Pete, as an ex nurse I am familiar with the condition, if you ever feel you need to talk.......

Thanks, pete, any help greatly appreciated, I'm now part disabled and P3d is pretty much my only way to get out and about
