Try the development version then...

I will look at this, when I have time (i.e. maybe in a couple of days), but as FBW does not even support the development version. I doubt there is much I can do...

Hi John!

I installed version 7.3.9h today.

I have two problems:
1. The switch assignments for the FBW are no longer saved. I still have a backup copy of the older FSUIPC files. Are the FBW programmings stored in one of the files?
2. We need an update of the FSUIPC_WAPID.dll so that I can use my home cockpit hardware again.
Thank you very much for your effort!

You will find that in the Utils folder of your FSUIPC7 installation.

What do you mean by this? Your assignments are stored in the FSUIPC7.ini file, and possibly another .ini file under the Profiles sub-folder if using 'profiles in separate files'.
If you change the installation location, you will need to copy across from your original installation folder. Bur these files are not touched when you re-install,

1.Thank you very much. I'll test that tomorrow. Hope it all works out :)

2.I just installed the new FSUIPC as intended. And the programmed switch assignments seem to need reprogramming. I'll test the backup files tomorrow.

They really shouldn't... can you show me your FSUIPC7.ini file and an FSUIPC7.log generated with logging for Buttons & Keys and Events activated - load your aircraft, press an assigned button/switch or two, then exit.

Yes - all your custom controls have disappeared:

I don't know how that could have happened...probably FSUIPC7 was started with no access to the presets file (events.txt) and so re-wrote your ini with 0 controls. Strange - I will take a look to see if I can prevent this.

Can I just replace the relevant files?

Yes - just rename the FSUIPC7old.ini as FSUIPC7.ini and drop that into your installation folder.

I released 7.3.9 this morning so you should also update to that.

Sorry for the delay...missed this posts yesterday somehow...

Regards,

John

Unfortunately that does not work.
I replaced the "old" fsuipc.ini file several times. But after starting FSUIPC the programming entries are all gone

That is very strange - this  would normally indicate that the presets could not be loaded, but the log you posted, truncated as it was, still showed that presets had been loaded:

Quote

      328 7945 Calculator Code presets have been loaded and are available for use

Do you have presets available? Can you show me a full FSUIPC7.log file please as the last one ended after 31 seconds - make sure you have exited FSUIPC7 before attachung the log file.

It looks like the assignments are now loading before the presets have been loaded, resulting in presets to the general buttons being lost. I will fix this asap....

Sorry about this - I will post an update soon...

John
