Troubleshooting

If the device screens continue to be non-functional after the installation, please refer to the Troubleshooting page for assistance.

Autostart

During the installation process, the installer creates an autostart entry in the exe.xml configuration file. If the file does not exist, it will be created. In the event that the file exists but is corrupt, a warning message is displayed and no entry is written. To ensure safety, a backup copy of the existing file is made before each installation and uninstallation. All files can be found within the MSFS AppData folder.
