I have been into flight sim for 14 years and PFE is by far the most difficult program to operate.
I cannot seem to get any flight plans showing on the select new ADV. I have been through the forum
And watched the tutorial several times but still can't get the program to work.

Delete the pf_emulator.ini file, your flight plans should then be displayed

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

How do I locate this file? I had a go at deleting what I thought was the correct file but still the same problem with the ADV list or lack of it. I have deleted the program again & must reinstall it & have another go. Seems a shame to have to go deep into a flightsim addon to delete a file to try and make
It functional. Radar contact was a walk in the park to configure compared to this, but this does look
Like a good program. Difficult to get it up & running though.

You locate the file in exactly the same way that you locate any other file!!!!

INI Val: C:\FS_ADD~1\PFE\FS2000\ADV


Is the above file the file that I need to delete? I found it in PFE install file section.

Hi,

you can find the PF_Emulator.ini file in your PFE installation folder : .../PFE

Yes this a far cry from just install and use...I had it for 5 days...jumped through tons of hoops ...been up and down the manual and I still cant even get the first comm to play

Hi,

in case you are using multiple monitor(s) , make sure you have focus on FSX

That indicates you have not installed PFE in the location you are searching !
