Hi,

I've followed all the instructions, BUT it won't let me save the changes to the aircraft .cfg folder, saying it can't find it. How do I get round this?

Thanks

Be sure that you are signed on as administrator.

I've had this problem recently with HJG textures on FS9 and i have'nt figured it out yet 😕 . It's like something is missing yet it's all there (if you know what i mean), i don't have a problem with others! I even tried going directly to the aircraft cfg and typing it in but it still said it could'nt find it 😕 .

This is were I sound daft. How do I make sure I'm on as administrator?

What OS is it and if your the only one that uses that machine you already are the administrator.

Two of us use the PC, and it's Vista

Vista, I can't help.
Let the other person try to to it while you tell them how. See if that works.

If you want it to run as administrator:

Do a right click on the item in question and then click properties

now click compatibility tab at the top and the administrator is down the bottom just tick it and then press ok

from then it will keep running it in administrator.

And also if that dont work go to security tab on the same place and make sure you have a black tick next to everything you should have a tick next to FULL CONTROL if you dont click edit then put a tick in the box then click ok again then it should work.

To make changes to the cfg file using vista operating system, first go to control panel , the go to user accounts ,there your see if your adminstrator, if you are your see turn user account on or off, click this link, your then see a window with user account control , take the tick out of the box and the restart your computer. your find you can change your cfg files etc no problem!!!!

Try what richardf1fan says, it's worked for me, no more Orbit Airlins, THANK GOD, and thank you man

I save the new cfg folder to my documents, then copy that to the folder. it seems to work just fine for me 🙂
