FSX joystick settings disappear after closing program

I'm under Flight Simulator X on Windows 7, 64 bit.  I have a Saitek yoke and pedals for rudder CH.  I'll have to set up and calibrate the yoke and pedals whenever I start Flight Simulator x, because the settings seem to be reset after I close the program.  I've never had this problem until I went from Vista to Windows 7.

The yoke for twenty years of odd functions, it becomes very irritating to say the least.  I have tried to make profiles and save them, but no use.  Has anyone else had this problem and with success the fixed?

Thank you!

Hi sfergson727,

1. what version of Flight Simulator X are you using?

2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

3 when was the last time it was working fine?

I suggest that you download the drivers for Saitek yoke and pedals CH rudder on the manufacturer's Web site and then install the drivers in compatibility mode, check if it helps.

What is program compatibility?

    When I have several emails open outlook and I want to quickly close a whole bunch of them I want to be able to close the mini window.  However after the closure of each of them by clicking on the red x, the set of mini windows disappears and I have to move the mouse down to the button of the taskbar for the mini windows reappear and then I can close one that follows and then repeat again and again.  It is very annoying when you have a dozen or so open emails.   How can I make other minis windows stay on the screen, so I can just click each red x one by one, without returning to the task between the two bar button?  It would be so much faster.

    Step 1:

    Open multiple Internet Explorer Windows, and then try to close them by using Windows Ridge previews.

    Step 2:

    Try restarting in a clean boot to see if you are able to close previews without collapsing the list every time.

  • Lightroom develop settings disappeared after a computer virus removal

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my development settings to find Lr I had problem with virus a couple days where all my files have been encrypted. A so-called virus ransomeware RSA 4096 caused it. They have (support antivirus Norton) has removed the virus for me but they told me that it was nothing I could do with my files photo on my hard drive of the computer. The result was that I had to delete all the files that I had stored. Luckely, I made a back-up, 2 days before (on my external hard drive), my computer has been infected. The problem is, when I try to use my backup catalog I can't access my development settings in images. Everything is zero. RAW file is in place and I can start to change the image of course again, but it's a lot of work. The other strange thing is that all of my files exported JPG also appears in the catalog and I don't really know why... Maybe I'm an amateur, but I would like help, because it frustrates me :-(

    Best wishes

    Ken

    Could you try to open the other catalogs (recent) backup of your external drive.

    It is possible that the virus has infected the backup too.

    Find your external drive for catalogs. Search for "*.lrcat " and see if it returns multiple catalogs.

    You can also see recover the catalog and images after resetting preferences in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom

    I use the latest Version of Lr, 5.6

    Latest version of Lightroom 5 is 5.7.1.  See the maintenance of Lightroom

  • Adobe processes continue to run after closing program!

    Hello

    I have this problem with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Media Encoder, and hearing, but not with Photoshop, Dreamweaver etc.

    Whenever I close one of these programs, the respective process continues to run in the background.

    I can't restart the program until I go into the Task Manager and kill the process (AfterFX.exe, Adobe first Pro.exe, pproheadless.exe)

    I already tried cleaning with the cleaning tool to uninstall and reinstall but the problem remains.

    I encountered this problem a few months after a long break from Adobe.

    Never had any problems before.

    I cloned my complete system with Acronis on a new SSD a few months ago...

    don't you remember anything else with a lot of impact that could have triggered it.

    System: Win7 x 64

    Software: Adobe CC

    I found the Solution (for me at least)

    It seems to be a driver problem with the 600 series of nvidia graphics cards.

    I installed the old driver for my GTX 680 and everything works fine now (some newer drivers might also work)

    I'll write an e-mail in support of Nvidia and tell them what happened, pls do the same if you found the solution because of this post and

    upcoming drivers going to work well for us once again.

  • My profile keeps disappearing after closing Firefox. In order to open it to the top, I have to keep re - create a new. How to fix?

    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and no dice. If I don't re - create the new profile, I get the error message that the profile is missing or inaccessible while trying to open firefox. I have to open the browser by clicking on the new profile, that I just created in the Manager profile area.

    This may be due to a problem with the file profiles.ini.

    It is probably best to delete the file profiles.ini to force Firefox to create a new default profile

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
      C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/

  • UPDATE works well... amd switchable graghics. Ati HD 6300 drivers disappear after

    HP Pavilion dv7-4270us.                            Product #XZ826UA #ABA

    UPDATE: I reinstalled drivers all again, with the same results as below. Crash with in the first 5 min to display of average quality settings. So I decided to try the package unistall supplied with the updated driver. I used ATI unistaller package Legacy 13-9 AMD/ATI. UNISTALL the express button. After uninstall properly finished and before I reinstalled the same driver package, I checked to see what drivers were still missing.  And that's my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6370 returned on my device manager after the Unistall. I have not crushed then game drivers or lost when you restart.

    FYI back, when I did a clean install on with HP sp50599.exe driver with auto install and even when I did the installation myself, display drivers do not work properly. Not until I used the uninstall program DDU then did a clean install (which means a new driver package never run) with MS 50599.exe, reboot, I then installed the card ATI 13-9 Legacy pilot, (download the fresh). The computer crashed shortly after that, I used the unistaller inherited from 13-9. After Unistalling my drivers. THE pilots finally actually work properly... what a mouthful. Seems illogical, but it is what it is.

    The graphics and control are superior to all other drivers.    They are here.

    AMD / ATI switchable graghics. Ati HD 6300 drivers disappear after use / restart. I have to reinstall both HP sp50599.exe / then ATI drivers inherited from 13-9. He works for a short time, then goes down the chart high-definition and which X 11. 4200 drivers are fine in Device Manager but no driver HD 6300. I think they were the 6300 series cannot be verified until I have reinstall the GPU drivers because they appear in Device Manager. Think also that the Mobility Radeon is a M880.  Checked for hardware change and found nothing.  Uninstall AMD did not have Direct X 11 work properly, that it ran slowly and hot even on smaller settings if the Direct X 11 works not at all. The DDU uninstaller it works beautifully not running hot with the default game settings are almost at the upper end. Beautiful graphics and very smooth controls. But now the fall on the problem with the display drivers. I use the xbox 360 controller pc hand instead of via USB key board. I did have a problem with any top end games (Deus Ex human Resources, Tomb Raider, Batman Arkham City.) Until I ran FFXIII-2, it is a terrible and taxed my graphic system console port and crashed it. First noticed HD Audio dropped then rendered account that this view HD controller did not work. Now when I reinstall display drivers other games live X II causes the crash.

    Thanks for any help,

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive

    What are the mistakes you are seen to appear?

    Try to start Firefox in safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, customizations, hardware acceleration, etc., temporarily for the diagnosis and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker. Once you do, you can turn off this add-on and report the problem to the developer of this - on Add.

    A few other basic problems you can try things is the following:
    Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.

    Updating your graphics driver (Firefox uses the graphics card for rendering and an outdated graphics card driver can cause problems. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers.
