Dreamflight767 Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hello: I'm trying to edit the .ini using w/ notepad but the changes aren't saving. I'm trying to manually configure a button which I want two actions for. I save the .ini, close it, load the MSFS but the actions don't work. So, I open the .ini and see it's reverted back to the previous configuration. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamflight767 Posted August 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Please close this. I was able to edit by saving a copy of the .ini, made changes and copied those changes to the saved copy and pasting into my FSUIPC folder. Thanks!

If this is not happening, then it could be due to windows (or anti-virus) protection on the FSUIPC7 installation folder. Check that you have not installed into a windows-protected folder such as Documents or Program Files. Note that if you are editing the ini file manually, you should do this either with FSUIPC not running, or for editing button and assignments sections, you can have FSUIPC running but with the assignment panel already open, then make your changes and click the Reload all buttons or Reload all assignments button. If you manually change the ini and then open an assignments panel, your changes will be overwriiten. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
