Initalization Failure

Richard Westcott

Charter Member 2011
I had a clear out of my old FS9 files before christmas in anticipation of flying over the holidays:help:

Anyway today is the first time I have tried to start FS9 since and I get and an initalization failure on start up.

My mind has gone totally blank, I cannot remember if starting FS9 in safe mode or something similar will by pass this, anyway I cannot remember what the heck to do!!

I know the easy way would be to reinstall the aircraft, but I can not remember which one it is either!

Please help.

Thanks
 
Sounds like you might have removed the default C-172 Cessna Skyhawk. You didn't give us enough info on what you "cleaned out." If you saved all the files you cleaned out, (you did, didn't you???) then just reinstall that folder. If you didn't, you're in for a reinstall of the program.
 
Sorted now, I have been using FS9 all this time and never knew you could reset the default settings via the troubleshooting option in the windows menu!

I am glad I do not have to re-install.
