  1. Old man finally had enough of fighting Flight Simulator.


    I'm afraid I am 75 and have never played computer games, so my knowledge, about what they offer, how they work, etc is non existent.


    But, I did fly for many years and computer program in BASIC, Pascal and C++ for a few years.


    I have never owned or have any idea about Xbox or Playstation.


    Thanks to help on this site I finally got rid of the 'insert disc' command.


    But now despite hours of fighting the software, setting up an old Black Widow controller given to me by a friend, the program recognises the inputs which I validate, saving the settings, the Sim insists on offering mouse controls only when I try to fly.


    I have installed the latest joystick drivers - nothing works. I used the ten disc version of flight Sim.

    Why does my copy seem to be associated with a gaming company and not Microsoft - why am I called 'Bearbrush 3908' or some such silly name?

    Is there a site with instructions anywhere that actually work? Why hasn't Microscoft sorted all the problems that seem to be afflicting so many people?

    :)

  3. Microsoft Flight Simulator issue after Windows 10 Upgrade

    Hi Rahul,



    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.



    I suggest you to completely uninstall Microsoft Flight Simulator and check.

    Refer the steps below to uninstall.

    • Press “Windows key + X”, select Control panel.
    • Open programs and features.
    • In the list of installed programs, select Microsoft Flight Simulator, and then click
      Remove.


    Note: If you have earlier versions of Flight Simulator in the list of installed programs, you will have to remove them in addition to Flight Simulator.



    Reinstall the Flight Simulator.
