    Hi,

    I've followed all the instructions, BUT it won't let me save the changes to the aircraft .cfg folder, saying it can't find it. How do I get round this?

    Thanks

    I've had this problem recently with HJG textures on FS9 and i have'nt figured it out yet Confused . It's like something is missing yet it's all there (if you know what i mean), i don't have a problem with others! I even tried going directly to the aircraft cfg and typing it in but it still said it could'nt find it Confused .

    If you want it to run as administrator:

    Do a right click on the item in question and then click properties

    now click compatibility tab at the top and the administrator is down the bottom just tick it and then press ok

    from then it will keep running it in administrator.

    And also if that dont work go to security tab on the same place and make sure you have a black tick next to everything you should have a tick next to FULL CONTROL if you dont click edit then put a tick in the box then click ok again then it should work.
