Thanks for the suggestion, but this is what I have done, did it again just to make sure but the control setting is stilll disabled in DCS.
Also tried re-enabling the extension and disabling it again with restarts of Voice attack, running repairs at all stages in between and after (openbeta build). Weird and very frustrating, what am I missing :huh:
Finally managed to solve it, what worked was to delete the entire f14 controls folders from the user DCS folder then restarting DCS and re-importing the backup keybinds. It seems if the controls get corrupted there is no way to clear them out but deleting them entirely. :thumbup:
