Sky Blue Flyer Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 Hi John I am having trouble loading the WASM Module after moving my MSFS installation to a new M2 drive on my sim pc. I updated the Usercfg.opt with the new MSFS folder location and MSFS loads and runs normally except for no WASM Module. A quick look at the fsuipc7.log seems to show that the FS UNC Path is still showing the old MSFS installation folder path and not the new one. I have tried re-installing fsuipc7 (I'm on the latest version) but the FS UNC path is unchanged. How can I update this please? fsuipc7.ini, fsuipc7.log and installfsuipc7.log files attached. regards Martin FSUIPC7.ini FSUIPC7.log InstallFSUIPC7.log
Sky Blue Flyer Posted February 25 Author Report Posted February 25 Solved - I appear to have legacy msfs files in a microsoft store version of msfs even thogh I am now using a Steam version so I have two usercfg.opt files. FSUIPC7 was looking at the legacy usercfg.opt for the package location which was still pointing at the old location. After I updated the location in thus usercfg.opt file the WASM module was found. Not sure why fsuipc7 was looking here as everything plays nicely when I load the normal steam msfs. It all works now so am happy.

This is strange as the installer first checks the steam location for the UserCfg.opt file in this location: %APPDAT%\Microsoft Flight Simulator\UserCfg.opt If this file exists, a Steam install is assumed, and if not then an MS Store installation is assumed. And your installation log shows that the following UserCfg.opt file was used: File D:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\UserCfg.opt opened OK This IS for your Steam installation. 15 hours ago, Sky Blue Flyer said: I updated the Usercfg.opt with the new MSFS folder location Are you sure that you did not update the UserCfg.opt file from the MS Store installation, which would be here: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\UserCfg.opt or possibly %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\UserCfg.opt

I pointed it to the new package folder location and everything was then fine. Obviously I couldnt leave it like that so I removed the Store legacy files, reinstalled fsuipc7 and it correctly identified the steam usercfg.opt and FS UNC path. FSUIPC7 did what it supposed to once the confusion of having a steam and a legacy store version of the usercfg.opt was rectified. kind regards Martin

FSUIPC7 does first check that location for the UserCfg.opt file, and so incorrectly determined that you were using an MSFS version and looked for the WASM under E:\MSFS\Packages\Community. Removing/renaming the YserCfh.opt file would have fixed this. I should really check the location in the same order as the installer to avoid such issues....I will update for this. Cheers, John
Sky Blue Flyer Posted February 26 Author Report Posted February 26 I'm sure my scenario is pretty rare but an update as you suggest would make it fool proof. Thanks for taking the time to look at this John. best Martin
