Hi
My FSX saves its flight plans in C:\Users\John\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files.
But on browsing for a flight plan from ProFlight 2000 the default folder is always
C:\ PFE\Pilots
Is there any way to change the default folder for ProFlight 2000?
Thanks
John

Thanks again Dave
I have that now.
My next problem is that PFE does not seem to connect to FSX.
On running FSX, I get a small window with FSUIPC and PFE is initialising but that goes away after a while and no messages are shown by hitting 0. PFE is not in the addon menu.
As soon as I chose Connect to FSX in PFE it closes down. Is that right?
TIA
John

No that's not right.

First though, you will not see anything in the addon menu, that was removed years ago.

I'm assuming you are using the latest release of PFE (2.15), if not, please update using the cumulative updates package at he top of this forum. If you are, please send me ALL the files from your PFE\Logs folder. Preferably zipped and via email

Well there's not much there to go on.

What version of PFE are you using?

Have you installed it into C:\Program Files ?

Do you have the latest version of FSUIPC installed?

Okay, uninstall PFE and reinstall into another location.... anywhere other than Program Files

Dave
I have re-installed PFE into c:\pfe and it does now connect to FSK.
Also added in all the updates I can find.
I was not getting the green FS message on the FSX screen when I pressed 0 on the keyboard so went into PFE to check.
I selected Default settings and got "Runtime error 381. Invalid property array index" so something else is wrong.
Thanks
John
