What kind of files does the FS produce and what type of files does it depend on? Im not familiar with it.
Flight simulator is just a simulator kinda like a game i guess but most refer to it as a simulator rather then a game. Most files are BGL's and Texture files for specific Land Class and Sceneries. I know some aircrafts have Registry Entries within the Registry to assure windows that the Aircraft's where purchased. But it all points to the F drive and some PDF Licence files wich point to C Drive
All BGL's are loaded within the simulator itself it searches for scenery within a Txt file labled Scenery.cfg to load up the scenery from what i know everything is loaded from the F Drive the only thing is the registry has some files linking the C to F for payware Scenery and Payware Aircrafts but considering J will soon become F those registry entries will still be pointing to F Drive once the letter is changed
Just to confirm Re assigning a letter to an exiting partition doesn't require reformatting the partition?
ok so if FS(Flight Simulator is in J drive) Changing J to F should Re-link the registries to Flight simulator so as long as the Registry points to F?
In other Words the computer doesnt know F use to be J changed to F as long as the path in those registries are pointing to F
so anything that requires the drive letter will automatically be fixed if J becomes F
The idea is to transfer Flight Simulator from F to J then change the old F Letter to a different letter to then change J to F so flight simulator can run on its own drive rather then the old extended F partition
Got it just make sure that J is F and doesnt stay as J lol Thanks :) There will be no files on the old F partitoned drive all filles will be transfered since its just the simulator so the old F partition will be completly Empty as it has nothing but the simulator
Just to be clear Everything on the old F will be transferred to J wich will become F
All done and tested everything worked thanks guys for all your help:)
