FSX Main window no longer available

[Martin]

Hey, great program! However I uninstalled the demo version (via Win 7 uninstall) and now when I start FSX it shows the FSX splash screen then goes right into a preset flight passing the main FSX screen where you select everything. How do I get the main FSX screen back?

Thanks - Martin

In FSX General Settings set "Show Opening Screen" to true.

This is something FSX does as a result of what we do with FSX.

If my FSX is set to "Show Opening Screen", then I start an IF flight, then end the flight any time, next time I open FSX on it's own the opening screen always appears.

Some things IF does:

If you use the IF: FSX Icon, IF remembers what your setting was, sets it to ON, then starts FSX, up comes the opening menus, when you close FSX and IF is still running, IF resets the setting back to what it was, if you exit IF, the setting will remain on.

Another thing you can do is set a vakue to True in IF: Config.ini, this will make sure the "Show Opening Screen" setting is turned on when you start IF or Exit IF.
