When updating or reinstalling P3D: Close Ideal Flight, update or install the simulator, run the simulator to the in-sim display, close the simulator, run Ideal Flight Setup to allow Ideal Flight to gather information such as the location of the simulator program files, finally run Ideal Flight so that it can index the scenery.

Before installing scenery or aircraft add-ons: Make sure to close Ideal Flight first. After installing scenery or aircraft add-ons and before running Ideal Flight, run the simulator so that the simulator can update its configuration. Finally run Ideal Flight so that it can read the latest simulator configuration.

Security: The Ideal Flight installation program has to check your simulator installation and may appear suspicious to your security software. The security program does this as a precautionary measure to guard against malware. Please choose to continue the Ideal Flight installation as it is perfectly safe to do so.

Compatibility: Ideal Flight is compatible with all versions of Windows, including Windows 11. There is no need to set Administrator Privileges or compatibility settings on the Ideal Flight Setup program as this acquires special privileges itself. Changing compatibility settings on the installer program can cause it to fail to install or run correctly.

If your simulator runs with Administrator Privileges: In this case Ideal Flight should also be set to Run as Administrator.

Registration requires an internet connection.

Although unlikely, it is possible another kind of add-on may produce unexpected results within Ideal Flight. Please report back if any problems are encountered.
