Egbert Drenth 52 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hi, I had to do a full/new install of SimStarter V1.6 because auto update was not possible. I installed the new version, over the old V1.5.3, so I still have my data folder (also made a copy of that folder before installing) It looks like I lost all my profiles, settings etc after installing V1.6. How can I get them back? (They still reside in the data folder) Egbert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Capt. PERO 398 Posted October 16, 2017 Developer Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hi Egbert, normally all data should be there if your old installation has been in C:\Aerosoft\SIMstarter NG\ Data folder should be here: C:\Aerosoft\SIMstarter NG\data\userprofiles\P3Dv4\ Even the uninstall would not delete this folder. So if you did not it should persist here. I assume that you have moved the original installation and maybe took the original folder with you? If not please post a DebugPack.

Egbert Drenth 52 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 Oki, problem solved. I selected C:\FS-Apps\SimStarter (my old simstarter 1.5.3) as installation folder for version 1.6. What happened was that version 1.6 was installed in folder C:\FS-Apps\SimStarter\Simstarter NG, effectively not overwriting my current installation The installation folder dialog box did not show this, hence I thought it was installed in C:\FS-Apps\SimStarter. Maybe advise users in the dialogue that 'Simstart NG' is added to the selected folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Capt. PERO 398 Posted October 16, 2017 Developer Share Posted October 16, 2017 I am happy if your issue is solved. :O) The default installation will be done to C:\Aerosoft\SIMstarter NG\ Moving the folder is on your own risk but in general SIMstarter NG will work on other locations.
