Followed instructions and yet the 2020 option is still greyed out, what am I doing wrong!!

Sorry.

OK so I'm an idiot, but it still doesn't help me resolve my problem.
what directory do I put where so that it finds the correct info for the data base?

Please be patient, I am 75 and I think my faculties are failing me!!

Is this part of it: G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimulator, if so where do I put is>

Regards

Hi, no I am trying to build database for the new MSFS 2020, not the old one, why, what have I done?

I did have the old one through steam before but I thought I had deleted it.

The location of Usercfg.opt  is
C:\Users\Rod\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator

Also attached the log file requested. sorry for the delay but it took me a little time to work out how to attach a file. Idiot!!

Is build 221 for the steam version or is there another one coming? I rebuilt the database and have the same problem. I am sure I am doing something wrong so my apologies.

Regards

No worries and thank you for all your help.

can you send me an email when the build is ready?

Have found it in a directory called

G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimulator\Packages\fs-base-onboarding\

Should I move it somewhere else? This is the same drive where those two other files sit but they are under G:\FlightSim\

Thanks for all your help

Found the two folders and it seemed to create the database, except when I went to 'Find' the airports do not have the correct names E.g. 00KS  Name: 'TT:AIRPORT0D.KS.name'. Have I the wrong two folders?.

Many thanks, will try it.

I have tried it and it appears that the path ends with 'Local Cache' and not 'Packages'. I have no file called packages? Any suggestions?

Have installed V4 Alpha but cannot create the FS2020 Database. Is it because I access the sim through Steam? If so what is the route to create the database? Hope you can help. Love the new version.
