Problems with Thrustomaster CCP not finding calibration file

[mjayuk]

Hi,

 

I'm running Windows 10 Pro. I have a Thrustmaster Cougar Stick and Throttle. Due to a hardware issue, I've recently had to reinstall Windows and all software. Whilst I've got my flight software reinstalled, I'm having problems with HOTAS CCP.

 

The problem is this: When I run HOTAS CCP and calibrate my axis, I save my CCF file (checking the boxes to make it active calibration file and also applying and switching to manual mode)

 

However, when I close CCP and reopen it, it doesn't show *any* of my saved CCF files in the drop-down list for the active file and I end up having to manually recalibrate the joystick - which is becoming a real pain.

 

I"ve found that when the HOTAS CCP program saves a CCF file, it saves it to the location:

 

C:\Users\<myusername>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\HOTAS\calib

 

I've tried copying the ccf files to different locations - such as:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\HOTAS\

C:\Program Files (x86)\HOTAS\Calib

C:\Program Files (x86)\HOTAS\Files

 

but still, the drop-down list for calibrations is empty.

 

Has anyone else experienced this problem - and hopefully been able to fix it?

 

If so, please put me out of my misery and tell me how.

 

Many thanks
