Microsoft Flight Simulator Interface, Settings & Tools Questions & Answers

13 answers · All Microsoft Flight Simulator answers

Interface, settings and tools questions often begin with a control that is hidden, moved or refusing to persist. This hub covers enabling Developer Mode in MSFS 2024, navigating the in-simulator toolbar, changing language and adjusting sim rate without losing track of the normal time controls.

It also tackles settings that reset after restart, configuration files that are not being written, and permissions, cloud synchronisation or add-ons that can override preferences. Answers are written and tested by the Fly Away team, with steps that distinguish MSFS 2024 from earlier versions where menus and behaviour differ.
