Options not saved

[michael-t 5]

It appears that the Options "Cold & Dark" and "Realistic IRS Align" cannot be saved.

Are you running the simulator with Administrative rights as advised in the manual?

[michael-t 5]

yes, right mouse menu and start as Administrator

Do you have Steam or Store version? Are other options from the EFB saved?

 

There is one cutomer with Steam that reported the same but he went quiet after told to run the sim with Admin rights. At this point it seams that limited rights don't allow saving.

It is a bit different from what I have described: the options are saved correctly, but they seem to have no influence on the startup state.

 

[Startup]
Default=0
 

[Config]
IRSAlignTime=0

My options save OK overall, except "IRS align time" and "flight deck noises" - they never get saved

Exactly the same here.  I Open sim as administrator always as well.

The behaviour you describe only happens if you select the wrong option.
In the red rectangle are the states that you can currently select, i.e. when you are standing around somewhere.
But if you press the button in the yellow field (default state) you can select the states that will be loaded in the future, the next time you start the sim.

Each time you press the button, a different state is displayed and will loaded next sim start.

Suddenly, I have both C&D and IRS realistic align time working. I hope it will stay...

We’re referring to saving the options listed on the Options Page.

Depending on the type of user account that you're using, it might be required to run the simulator as administrator.

I'm aware that the flightdeck noise setting doesn't save (it's already been fixed here), but all the other things should load/save.

Glad to read others are having issue with flightdeck noise as mine will not save either. Thanks Hans for the update!

Same here but just for the flight deck noises, IRS alignment I did not change and left it to instant

About the flightdeck noise, with this option on I hear someone coughing outside in drone view but not on the flightdeck. Maybe because of Covid (coughing only allowed outside}?

For me the IRS button is not saving either ( fixed on instant ... and i want the short )

Just wanted to say +1 about the flight deck noise and IRS not saving. I attempted to manually edit the configuration file and it didn’t change anything in sim. I have MSFS steam version. Off the top of my head I haven’t run MSFS as administrator. I will give that a try next time I have a chance. 

[Hans Hartmann 3718]

Can you post your configuration file here? I'd like to give it a try.

Hi Hans, sorry for the late reply. Sure thing, here is my configuration file. I'd like to add I ran MSFS in admin mode, and it still did not save the options.

CRJ.cfg

[Ivan Wong CL 11]

I too am seeing the same behavior. MSFS steam PC. IRS and sounds option not saved between loads.

Thank you. The reason why I asked for this file is that we had a similar problem during beta which was caused by duplicate section names (for example [Config])  in the config file. This is not the case with your file.

 

Did you guys try to run MSFS as Administrator?

[jzdilts 0]

Yes, unfortunately it’ still not being saved. 

[Ivan Wong CL 11]

Yes, ran as admin.
My IRS now seems to be saved. But my Flightdeck noises settings still defaults to off everytime.
