Hi,

Just updated to the latest version 3.1.1.94 and it has wiped out my network settings. I did have it connected via network to my laptop. It has removed them settings but it has greyed out the fsx database and it will no longer connect to the location. I have not made any changes to my PC and I can browse to the fsx directory and select it. I have try removing the old database files but now it just sit there trying to prepare database for new data.

Just to answer my own question. I loaded up the latest version onto my PC that runs FSX and updated the Database, copied the sdf files over to my laptop, re-entered the IP address and port number and all seems to be working now.

New versions always wipe the cfg file - that's the downside of using Windows cfg management. Just reset the paths and you should be good to go. Your databases are unaffected.
